**Position Type**
- Full Time

**Salary - £35,000 to £45,000 depending on skills, knowledge and experience**
**Location - Southwark, London SE1, with hybrid working**
**Contract Type - TfL**

**Overview of project/role**

The objective of **Public Transport Service Planning** is to plan the transport development of Rail and Underground and Buses, to meet current and future customer needs. We drive the development of London's public transport network in terms of reliability, journey time, capacity, connectivity, customer satisfaction, access to jobs and services and ultimately economic growth.

Our objectives include ensuring service plans are robust and reliable and meet customers' needs; assessing the impact of service changes, ensuring that TfL maximises the customer benefits from timetable changes, projects and other interventions; providing the modelling, business cases, surveys and other analytical services to ensure that TfL understands the impact of change on customers; collecting data across the transport network; and ensuring TfL understands current and forecast demand for London's bus and rail services.

We’re now seeking a **Transport Planner** to join our busy **Rail Closures Planning **team. Our key functions are the development of a closure programme for London Underground assets meeting the needs of assorted renewals and upgrades programmes for track, signals, lifts and escalators. We coordinate closures and customer handling plans with other modes and operators (e.g., National Rail), coordinating with events, such as concerts and sporting events, and development of alternative transport strategies. _The following should therefore be seen in the context of planned closures_.

You’ll support the development of service plans, strategies and policies for Public Transport, which sustain TfL's strategic objectives, and which optimise services for customer journey time, service reliability, network capacity and connectivity and take account of value for money and meet the objectives of the Mayor’s Transport Strategy.

You’ll support the development of strong business case analysis for changes to policy and long-term plans for Public Transport Service change, in collaboration with scheme sponsors, which support TfL's strategic objectives, and which optimise customer benefit, taking into account value for money, available resources, operational constraints and stakeholder priorities.

You’ll assist in the development of Service Planning analytical and reporting capabilities to better understand operational performance, environmental impact and passenger demand, through development and research of new analytical tools, techniques and performance indicators.

**Key Accountabilities**

Your duties will include, but not be limited to:

- Assist in the development of strategies, policies and service planning for Public Transport in line with the Mayor’s Transport Strategy (MTS), and best practice, guidance and legislation to ensure TfL's strategic objectives are met
- Support the provision of Public Transport Service Planning input into TfL wide policy, in particular in relation to revisions to the MTS, transport modelling, appraisal, land use planning and influence funding opportunities to ensure appropriate transport provision
- Undertake detailed analysis of feasibility, costing, passenger benefit evaluation and performance impact of service change proposals, including appropriate modelling and business case development to deliver value for money
- Assist in building and securing stakeholder support for service changes and projects across and outside the business to ensure deliverability
- Support the development of capability to analyse and forecast operational service performance and demand in order to optimise strategies and plans, ensuring the customer is put at the heart of decision making through customer focused benefits analysis and metrics
- Maintain appropriate statistical series and access to operational data, and consider requests for new statistics to enable effective data led decision making
- Support senior staff in providing appropriate responses to external enquiries and consultations
- Support input into the development of the TfL Business Plan and budget setting process to ensure cost effective provision
- Monitor and review the impact of selected service changes on TfL's customers and on TfL's delivery of its strategic objectives including value for money, customer journey time, reliability, capacity and connectivity and improve efficiency
- Manage as appropriate smaller programme of works (or assist in larger) to deliver plans, obtaining governance approvals
