Careers - Metro Trains Sydney (MTS)

MTS operates the Metro North West Line, Australia’s first driverless rail network.

Every day, our people connect passengers to the places that matter most to them, while delivering the next generation of rail travel to Sydney.

We are the future of rail. With global expertise, we are the first operator and maintainer in Australia to run reliable and safe services. We pride ourselves on our customer service with satisfaction scores consistently reaching 98%+

It's an exciting time to join us. The Sydney Metro network is expanding, and MTS is growing, bringing fully automated mass transit into the City with the opening of the M1 Northwest and Bankstown line in August 2024, with a further expansion planned for the south west.

We’re seeking high-calibre people who share our values and can offer skills across our three main streams.
