Chris Watters
Head of Rail Systems, UK and Europe
I’m a senior engineering manager with experience in various engineering and commercial management roles within the rail sector.
I have international experience managing and coordinating teams on large multi-discipline projects, leading numerous technology and due diligence reviews in areas such as:
- rolling stock
- signalling systems
- electrification systems
- distribution systems
- depot facilities
- hydrogen and battery systems
Examples of my work include valuing a rolling stock maintenance business and evaluating hydrogen as a potential fuel for rolling stock.
I’m dedicated and meticulous in my work, having led the introduction of four mainline fleets. I was nominated by the Hull Trains board for the “Personal Outstanding Achievement” at the Rail Awards following the successful introduction of new rolling stock and the achievement of ongoing reliability.
