I'm currently recruiting for a growing and well-respected consultancy based in Southampton, and they're looking to bring in a talented Senior Transport Planner to join their dynamic transport planning team.
If you're a Transport Planner with a few years of consultancy experience under your belt and are now looking for that next step in responsibility - managing your own projects, mentoring junior staff, and taking a lead role with clients - this is a great opportunity.

- Supporting the delivery of feasibility and masterplanning studies
- Liaising with clients, stakeholders, and local planning authorities
- Mentoring junior team members and contributing to team development
- Supporting business development through high-quality client service
What They're Looking For
- A background in transport planning, ideally within a consultancy setting
- Strong knowledge of the development planning process
- Proficiency in transport planning tools (e.g. Junctions 10, LINSIG, TRICS)
- Confidence working independently and taking responsibility for project delivery
- A collaborative, motivated approach with a desire to grow professionally
What's on Offer
- £40,000 - £52,000 salary (dependent on experience)
- Performance-related bonus
- 7% company pension contribution
- Private healthcare and life assurance
- Generous holiday allowance
- Flexible working options
- Sociable team culture with regular events and team days out
Whether you're already at Senior level or feel ready to make that jump, this role offers a clear pathway for career progression in a growing, supportive environment.
