Meet our Board and leadership teams

Our governance groups

Our Board, Executive Committee, and Chief Operating Group play a key role in running RSSB. They guide our strategy to ensure that we’re supporting you to deliver a safe, efficient, and sustainable railway.

Our Board is responsible for the effective oversight of the company. It agrees the strategic direction and governance structure to ensure long-term success and deliver stakeholder value. Our Board includes executive and non-executive directors from across the rail industry and outside of it.
