Advert
- SLR provide transport planning advice to clients across sectors including residential, retail and logistics. We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Transport Planning professional to join at Associate Director level, to assist with both project delivery and with client and team management activities. This role will be based in our London office.
- SLR are a consultancy who specialise in transport planning with a vision to deliver a valuable and lasting contribution to society through the way people connect, move and interact. Through bespoke solutions we enable development to be brought forward positively and sustainably, simultaneously optimising commercial value and placemaking to make projects a success. Whether we’re working on garden towns, strategic rail freight interchanges, nuclear power stations, sports stadiums, public sector schemes or small residential projects, we combine vision and creativity with technical rigour in design, planning and modelling to ensure the best outcome.
- Through envisioning the future and implementing the latest innovations, we are proud to be making a positive contribution, driving decarbonisation and changing mind-sets about travel behaviour. Our dedicated research and innovation arm ensures we are at the forefront of mobility solutions for sustainable development. Our team of social scientists, transport planners and climate specialists have a wealth of experience assisting in developing science-based and net zero carbon reduction targets.
- This knowledge provides our transport planners and engineers with insight and knowledge about best practice and future mobility approaches that directly benefit our clients on development planning projects in the UK.
- Led by one of the most experienced and recognised management teams in the industry, our scale, knowledge and reputation for unlocking complex sites in a sustainable manner provides our employees with vast development possibilities and the opportunity to help solve some of the most complex transport planning issues affecting our clients. As well as providing sound technical advice we consider it important to bring personality to our projects and that is what we do. We are focused on attracting and retaining high calibre individuals so many of our staff have, or are working towards, professional industry qualifications. Investing in our employees by providing training and a regular programme of CPD activities is part of our continual development strategy to improve skills, knowledge and understanding.
- We pride ourselves on being a company focussed on our staff and trying to create a culture which is beneficial to our staff and our clients. We try and create a camaraderie amongst all our staff through a variety of social events, with the aim of encouraging all new starters to become part of the team. Our most recent recruit in London said:

- “I quickly discovered that SLR places a far greater value on a job than simply a 9-5 and encourages every member of the company to immerse themselves in the culture which brings the office together. Although the list goes on, a few examples of this include the company 8-a-side team (which always seemed to find a day when it was 30 degrees to schedule a match), the social events and the JLL Property Triathlon event.”
- As an Associate Director you will be responsible for the delivery of a wide range of transport assessments for various clients across the UK, using a detailed knowledge and experience of standard modelling packages and recognised transport appraisal techniques.
- **The role**
- As part of the team or lead on projects, you will deliver market leading consultancy advice to clients and co-consultants and be confident in explaining technical matters to decision makers, interested parties and lay people. You will provide support to senior staff as well as having the opportunity to develop your own project management and work winning skills.
- Your key responsibilities will be:

- Manage client relationships to ensure the securing of work;
- Negotiate fee proposals;
- Manage work projects in line with client expectations and internal priorities;
- Manage and control project finances;
- Communicate with colleagues as appropriate;
- Continue to update personal knowledge or relevant technical, legal and policy changes;
- Manage and develop colleagues within project team;
- Use personal judgement and initiative to develop effective and constructive solutions;
- Maintain continuous professional development;
- Provide guidance on quality matters and technical issues; and
- Seek to “add value” to all projects.
