**Your new role, what's involved?**
WSP is looking for Human Factors consultants to join its growing Human Centred Design capability within our Intelligent Infrastructure team.

Our consultants work with clients to explore challenges and trends in the transport and mobility space from a user perspective. We identify develop and advise on user-centred solutions to transport issues, working with experts from across WSP in the UK and globally to bring the right skills to each project.

We work across the whole lifecycle of projects and policy, providing expertise in areas including:

- Safety, for example safety risk assessments and safe systems approaches; understanding user error as a consequence rather than a cause of incidents
- Operations, all transport operations including station and stop designs, signalling, driving behaviours, digital design, influence on engineering or enforcement measures on user behaviour
- Research, both qualitative and quantitative, including simulation studies, feasibility studies, surveys, focus groups and workshops
- Transport futures, including a user focus on emerging mobility trends and future ready transport
- Environment, including sustainability, decarbonisation, mode shift and active travel

Our work covers an extensive range of projects, including:

- supporting local and regional bodies in the deployment of user focused transport technology and better uses of data,
- delivering solutions to maximise road safety on motorways and major roads including user focussed appraisal and assurance of measures,
- cross-business collaboration to set and appraise policies and measures in support of vital net zero and air quality goals,
- shaping operational systems and services for control centres to reduce congestion and improve road user satisfaction,
- electric vehicle deployment and charging,
- assessing safety and user impacts of automated vehicles

Playing a leading part in our projects, you’ll directly impact the user experience in transportation across modes and utilising the latest technology and data. Our work helps to keep people safe when they travel, and increasingly focusses on enabling responsible mobility focused on the needs and capabilities of users. Your insight and influence is key in the trusted advisor role that we hold for our various clients.
**We'd love to hear from you if you have**:

- Applied expertise in Human Factors at chartered level (or near-chartered and able to demonstrate a credible plan for chartership)
- A degree or equivalent in a relevant discipline (e.g. psychology, engineering, transport studies, geography, liberal arts) or are a technician with BTEC, HNC/HND and an appropriate level of experience
- A proven track record in Human Factors in a consultancy, public sector or OEM role or able to demonstrate the aptitude and skills required to provide excellent Human Factors consultancy.
- A demonstrable ability to work in multidisciplinary teams to tight deadlines.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, the ability to undertake qualitative and quantitative research and analysis and to create technical outputs (reports, presentations) within time and cost and to high quality.
- Appreciation of the role of Human Factors and human reliability as part of safety cases
- An understanding of the role of Human Factors in complex and safety-critical systems.
