I’ve only been with Amaro for a relatively short time, but I can already see how different it is from other employers in the rail industry.

From the moment I set foot in the office, I was given the highest level of support from the company’s leadership and my other colleagues. I’m looking forward to a number of very happy and successful years here at Amaro.
