Ealing Council has published an ambitious Climate and Ecological Emergency Strategy, and we are working on a new Transport Strategy. Supporting active and sustainable travel is a key goal, with our 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.
We 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.
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 Common 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.
Don’t meet every single requirement? We 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 we’re looking for, go ahead and apply. You may be just the right candidate for the job!
This role is subject to enhanced vetting check.
You must have the right to work in the UK. Evidence for the right to work in the UK will be requested at the interview stage.
It is an exciting time to join us, here at Ealing Council. If you would like to make a positive difference to our residents and borough, then we’re looking forward to hearing from you.
We’ve tried to make this website as accessible as possible. You can use the accessibility widget on the right hand side to make it more accessible to you and your needs.
Ealing Council is committed to creating good jobs and delivering on its connected communities’ agenda. We are committed to equality of opportunity, to being fair and inclusive.
We therefore welcome applications from all residents of the borough, we particularly welcome applications from candidates who are entering the employment market in the early stages of their career and mid-career professionals, who are currently underrepresented in Ealing’s workforce.
Please note all applications will be determined on merit.
