Pharrell McKenzie joins Amaro as Assistant Installer

With a background in engineering but completely new to the railway, for some time now Pharrell’s been eager to follow in the footsteps of his uncle…

…Amaro Signalling Team Leader, Dion Barrow, forging a new and seriously rewarding career in signalling maintenance.

And, after interviewing him, we were only too happy to oblige!

Enthusiastic, dedicated, and incredibly eager to learn, he’s exactly the kind of young blood the UK’s rail sector needs, bringing new energy, ideas, and perspectives to an industry facing a rapidly aging workforce.

Welcome on board, Pharrell. We can’t wait to see where your rail journey takes you!
