Transport Planner

Transport Planner (Behaviour Change)

Location: Ealing / Remote

Salary: £38,934 - £40,755 per annum (inclusive), Grade 8

The Role

The Council has published an ambitious Climate and Ecological Emergency Strategy, and they are working on a new Transport Strategy. Supporting active and sustainable travel is a key goal, with their work focusing on walking, cycling, public transport and electric vehicles.

To support these goals, the Transport Planning team are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated individual to contribute to and manage a range of projects, including cycle training, public realm improvements, cargo bike trials, Play Streets, and other activities to promote the shift to active and sustainable modes.

It's an exciting time to join them. They are the third largest London borough by population, with many diverse communities and seven key town centres. They have ambitious plans to tackle the climate crisis, create good jobs, and fight inequality. They are involved in major transport projects such as High Speed 2, Heathrow Airport surface access, and massive new developments in Old Oak Common and Southall.

The council offer training opportunities and flexible working. This role will work on a hybrid basis with the rest of the Transport Planning Team, with time split between the office in Ealing Broadway and remote working.

Skills and Qualifications

They are looking for someone organised and self-motivated, with a keen interest in behaviour change, climate action, and/or active travel.

You will be comfortable with a varied workload, as this role will get involved in a wide range of projects.

You will have either a relevant degree (environmental studies, transport planning, or a related discipline) or equivalent experience.

Don't meet every single requirement? They know that sometimes people can be put off applying for a job if they think they can't tick every box. So, if you can do most of what they're looking for, go ahead and apply. You may be just the right candidate for the job!
