London, Greater London, United Kingdom Transport Focus Full time

Position Overview

At Transport Focus, we are dedicated to representing the interests of transport users across Britain. Our mission is to ensure that their needs and experiences are prioritized in future policy decisions and investments within the transport sector. We actively engage with the public to gather insights on their experiences with the railways, buses, trams, and major road networks in England. By collaborating with transport providers, we aim to address issues and publish improvement plans for more complex challenges. Our comprehensive analysis, grounded in industry data and insights, places the transport user's perspective at the forefront of decision-making processes in key governmental bodies.

Recently, we have undergone a significant organizational restructuring to enhance our effectiveness. This transformation has created a dynamic environment where we are focused on delivering greater impact for our stakeholders through our strategic business plan.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assist in the planning, commissioning, and execution of Transport Focus's policy initiatives.
  • Develop and publish policy documents and reports that reflect our findings.

  • Collaborate with internal teams to identify research opportunities and areas for policy enhancement.
  • Provide expert guidance on transport policies, ensuring they align with current evidence and analysis.
  • Foster and maintain relationships with stakeholders to enhance understanding of our policy positions and refine our messaging on complex topics.
  • Oversee projects and programs across various transport modes and themes.
  • Prioritize tasks to meet objectives outlined in the Business Plan while remaining responsive to external developments.
  • Prepare and deliver briefings and presentations, particularly in collaboration with Communications and Public Affairs teams.
  • Represent Transport Focus at forums, panels, and events.
  • Work with multidisciplinary teams to integrate transport policy into broader initiatives.

Candidate Profile

To excel in this role, you will possess:

  • Strategic thinking capabilities that will guide our policy initiatives.
  • A solid background in high-level policy development.
  • The ability to analyze and summarize complex information efficiently, leading to actionable policy recommendations.
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication skills to convey intricate issues clearly to diverse audiences.
  • Experience in managing and nurturing stakeholder relationships.

Benefits

In addition to a competitive salary, Transport Focus offers a comprehensive benefits package, including:

  • Contributions towards a Civil Service Defined Benefit Pension scheme.
  • Personalized learning and development opportunities.
  • 30 days of annual leave, in addition to public holidays.
  • Flexible working arrangements.
  • A culture that promotes inclusion and diversity.
  • An average employer contribution of 27% towards your pension.
