The role involves providing expert advice on sustainable travel, producing clear reports and presentations, and supervising team members to ensure workloads are effectively managed.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a proactive professional with a relevant degree or equivalent experience, and a solid understanding of sustainable transport and travel planning. You’ll bring strong project management skills, excellent communication, and the ability to engage and influence stakeholders while building effective partnerships. Confident in using Microsoft Office, you’ll play a key role in delivering impactful, sustainability-driven projects, and be willing to learn and utilise a variety of IT systems to effectively support the work.

If you’re motivated to drive positive change and create a more sustainable future for Hampshire, we’d love to hear from you.
