  • Strong geographical knowledge of the UK road network and experience with transport planning in a similar environment.
  • IT skills, particularly in transport and workforce management systems, such as Paragon, Job Watch, or Rotec, and Microsoft applications like Excel or Access.
  • A personable nature, a 'can-do' approach, and a drive to be proactive and reactive in a fast-paced environment.
