North Somerset, United Kingdom North Somerset Council Full time

Job description

**Location**: Based in North Somerset, homeworking policy applies
**Hours**: 37 hours per week
**Contract**: Permanent

North Somerset Council has an ambitious and wide-ranging programme of Bus Service Improvements, urban regeneration, and transport improvement schemes to deliver. We are looking for enthusiastic team players to join us and help deliver.

This will be a fast paced and exiting time to work for us. Following the award of significant funding for our joint West of England Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP), the second largest indicative funding settlement nationally, North Somerset Council is looking to expand its engineering design, public transport, transport planning, and sustainable transport teams to ensure successful delivery of our ambitious and exciting plans to transform sustainable and public transport in North Somerset alongside our colleagues across the West of England.

The projects range from a major bus priority package, first and last mile, DRT, 20mph zones, mobility hubs, EV charging infrastructure, and to developing Liveable Neighbourhood schemes.

We are aiming for our Bus Service Improvement Plan to significantly increase bus patronage, helping to decarbonise transport in the district. It is vital that you are ambitious and bring the right blend of skills and experience to deliver quickly and efficiently to challenging timescales.

To support these aspirations the council’s public transport team and highway design teams are seeking to appoint a range of Career grade posts, which allow you to progress your career with us.

The posts to be filled are;

**1. Senior Transport Planning Officer (Grade JM1, Career Grade)**
To progress all revenue work areas including service improvement, design and procurement of new services, design and delivery of fares packages, improved ticketing systems, back offices and Dynamic Demand Responsive Transport, bus information and data analysis and reporting. This role is key to delivery of new responsibilities under the Enhanced Partnership, BSIP grant and Passenger Charter. You will regularly liaise with partners (operators and WECA) and the DfT. This post is to be based within the Public Transport team but operate as part of the “Public Transport Joint Delivery Unit” with WECA officers, working seamlessly as a single service.

**2. Senior Transport Planning Officer (**Data and Analysis)** **(Grade JM1, Career Grade)**
To progress project data collection, analysis, and reporting as part of the new responsibilities under the BSIP grant, Enhanced Partnership and Passenger Charter and to enable scheme development and monitoring. This post will liaise with partners including bus operators, WECA and DfT. This post is to be based within the existing transport data and reporting team (within Policy and Development Management) but will be focussed on BSIP and public transport.

**3. Senior Transport Planning Officer (First and Last Mile) **(Grade JM1, Career Grade)**
This role will lead the development and engagement around transport hubs and interchanges, first and last mile connections to public transport and ensure we coordinate with the WECA Future Transport Zone MaaS and Mobility Hub projects. This workstream links directly with the Active Travel Strategy delivery plans and micro-mobility projects that focus on extending the reach of the public transport offer into our areas’ rural communities. Subject to ongoing discussions with DfT on the final settlement the Mobility Hub/Interchange package is estimated in value at between £6-12M for NSC. This role will be based within the Sustainable and Active Travel Team but focussed on BSIP and public transport integration workstreams.
