Transport Planner - London, United Kingdom - London Borough Ealing

Description

Fixed Term Contract until 31 March 2026

Ealing Council has published an ambitious Climate and Ecological Emergency Strategy. Supporting
active and sustainable travel is a key goal, and we have manifesto commitments to roll out EV
charge points and safe cycle parking across the borough.

To ensure we meet these commitments and provide high-quality green infrastructure, a new role
has been created within the Council's award-winning Transport Planning Team. We are seeking an
enthusiastic and motivated individual to project-manage the infrastructure delivery and fulfil
our sustainable transport ambitions.

We are looking for someone organised and self-motivated, with good analytical and
problem-solving skills. You will need to handle a full and varied workload and be
results-focused, with strong written and oral communication skills. You will have a keen
interest in sustainability and/or transport. You will have either a relevant degree
(environmental studies, transport planning, or a related discipline) or equivalent experience.
You will be familiar with good practice in project management.

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

We 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.


Closing date: 22nd June 2023
