Job Advert

Opportunity for a Graduate Transport Planner to join our growing, multidisciplinary team in Bristol, BS1 4UA, in September 2026.

Transport planning helps develop the future shape of our towns and cities, considering how transport will link people with places. And that includes encouraging sustainable modes of transport wherever possible to replace journeys by car. Working through the planning process and beyond, we communicate complex issues to the public, developers and politicians to help sustainable development happen.

During the first 12-months of your employment, you will be given the time and support to complete our eight-module graduate programme, giving you a great foundation for your career in transport planning as well as personal/professional development. The modules are: An introduction to transport planning, Access and internal masterplan considerations, Developing yourself as an effective colleague, Trip generation and Distribution, Services of a multi-disciplinary consultancy, Highway design (using CAD), Transport impacts, and an end-point assessment.

**Your day-to-day as a Graduate Transport Planner with us will include** (with the guidance and support of colleagues):

- Preparing technical reports such as Access Appraisals, Transport Statements, Transport Assessments, Travel Plans and Walking, Cycling, Horse-Riding Assessment and Reviews.
- Carrying out junction capacity modelling and CAD design work
- Liaising with stakeholders, external project team members and clients
- Representing the company at meetings, public consultations and exhibitions
- Undertaking site visits and surveys
- Working collaboratively within your team and others on multidisciplinary projects

**What we are looking for in our next intake of Graduate Transport Planners**:

- Demonstrate and articulate your talent and motivation to become a transport planner working in development planning
- Ability to research and to write high quality reports (typically demonstrated through your studies or work experience)
- Engaged by and believe in our values (see values graphic on our Careers page)
- Full UK driving licence
- The Right to Work in the UK indefinitely (we are unable to provide visa sponsorship now or in the future)

**About Rappor**

Our philosophy is simple: we invest in our people and build partnerships with our stakeholders, resulting in a dynamic and successful business that benefits everyone. As a multidisciplinary environmental and engineering consultancy, our outputs contribute to the built environment we all occupy. Our four values include ‘living our best life’ and ‘celebrating our team’, and we provide loads of opportunities to do just that. We currently number 70-something people, based out of four principal offices, and celebrated our 11-year anniversary this year

**Rewarding you**
- A competitive starting salary
- Industry-leading annual leave: 25 days, plus your birthday, plus the period between Christmas and New Year, and an additional day for every three years’ service up to an additional five days
- 4% contribution towards your company pension
- Life assurance
- Access to the Company’s wellbeing package, including a Cycle2work scheme, paid charity days, Employee Assistance Program (providing you with immediate and confidential help for any work, health or life matters) and social events throughout the year.

**Being inclusive**
