Eurostar

I’m excited to share that I recently became Development Manager in the IS Sales Systems department at Eurostar. During my 6.5 years at Eurostar, primarily as a Lead Scrum Master, I’ve cultivated a passion for agile methodologies and teamwork. Interestingly, Eurostar found me through my involvement in the agile community in London—thanks to a dev manager who reached out after seeing my participation in meetups! What I love most about my job is working with diverse colleagues. Learning about their cultures and building strong relationships enhances our collaboration and trust. I believe that when people feel valued, our work thrives. If I had to sum up my role in three words, they’d be: people, process, trust. Establishing effective processes is key, but trust is what truly drives success. I’m thrilled to continue making a positive impact and fostering a supportive environment for my team.

I joined Eurostar two years ago as an Assistance Team Member, and it’s been an incredible journey ever since. I chose to work in the rail industry as the fast-paced environment captivated me, and I saw a chance to genuinely improve people’s travel experiences. The variety of my job is something I love - no two days are the same. Whether I’m assisting passengers with visible or hidden disabilities or helping someone navigate through a busy station, I take pride in knowing I can make someone’s journey a little smoother. I get to interact with passengers from all walks of life, and one of my most rewarding moments was helping a wheelchair user and her daughter. After a brief chat, they said, "It must be so rewarding to know you're helping people who need your help," and that perfectly sums up why I love what I do. The energy at London St Pancras International keeps me motivated, however it's the team player ethos that we have within the company that I find truly special. When your colleagues are willing to go the extra mile to help, make you feel supported or simply just make your shift enjoyable, it makes every difference. I firmly believe that this is something our customers are able to feel and experience when they travel with us. Chris, Assistance Team Member
