Recruited as PPP (Prinicpal Project Planner) for Anglia, the largest route in NR. Recruited and told would have a Team of 6 - 7 people but this grew to 13 people as both signalling and Crossrail were dropped into Anglia.

Worked to support and help the Planning Team develop and operate as Planner and not data entry, and this brought various savings and improvements, but there was a major change happening with Anglia moving from Southern to Eastern, and there was too much politics going on including wanting to reduce the planning team from 13 to 6 or 7 planners.
