The Role:

The Design, Conservation and Transport Policy Team at Southwark Council are looking for a transport planning specialist who is passionate about tackling the climate emergency and transport mobility within Southwark.

The key workstreams of this new role includes:

Preparing new transport planning policies and planning guidance through the review of the Local Plan, Old Kent Road Area Action Plan and Supplementary Planning Documents. We will be working at the cutting edge of how local planning policy can respond to ambitious carbon reduction targets.
