  • Managing a team to deliver a transport strategy for private or public sector client.
  • Providing design advice for accommodating future mobility opportunities within a retrofit environment or new masterplan proposal (e.g. best practice for micro mobility design and future proofing for zeroemission, shared and automated vehicles).
  • Research and benchmark the latest in mobility technologies and services providers, including global suppliers, service offering, technical specifications, and operational requirements.
  • Liaise and work collaboratively with the wider project delivery team, including transportation & infrastructure, Sustainability, Digital Advisory, and Master Planning specialists to ensure the mobility requirements are integrated in all aspects of design.
  • Support in the Bidding team in the preparation of technical mobility scopes and fee estimation.
  • Identify opportunities for improving ways of working, including the implementation of alternative graphic and illustration tools.

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

  • You will be an experienced Engineer/Transport Planner with significant knowledge and hands on post graduate experience.
  • Demonstrable experience from consultancy, or industry that includes strong experience in developing mobility strategies and providing transport planning inputs to masterplanning and plot design schemes
  • Someone who is able to contribute to (for larger projects) and pull together from scratch (for smaller projects), Transport Statements, Transport Masterplan, Transport Policies, Transport Assessments and Travel Plans.
  • Experience and a passion for Design Thinking and Human-Centred Design.
  • Project management experience in a consultancy environment is essential.
  • Business development, bid writing and thought leadership skills would also be desirable;
  • Experience dealing with uncertainty and have the ability to be flexible and adaptable to a working environment that is evolving in nature, and requires varied project work and client demands.
  • Someone who has team leadership skills and can mentor others through performance management and training and development.

What's in it for you?
