About
Southeastern Railway
Southeastern operates one of the busiest networks in the country, including the UK’s first domestic highspeed service with Javelin trains.
We have been running the train service between London and Kent and parts of East Sussex since 2006. From 17 October 2021, Southeastern now operates under the ownership of the Department for Transport Operator of Last Resort Holdings Limited.
We run more than 2,000 trains and carry over 450,000 passengers every day between London, Kent and East Sussex.
Just over 4,500 employees – mostly from the communities that we serve – work together to provide this vital service.
However, working on our railway is more than getting passengers from A to B. It’s about all the little moments that make a difference to their journey.
It’s also about making our railway a great place to work and our team one that represents the communities we serve.
Our ways of working are what we expect of everyone at Southeastern. They are powerful. Tiny moments, every day, from every one of us, add up to massive, positive change. Improving how it feels to work here and how it feels to travel with us.
