Transport Modeller

Job Description

What we do:

“One of the really great things about working at AECOM is the opportunity to get involved in a wide range of work for varied and high profile clients.  I am able to take responsibility to progress the projects and schemes from concepts through to realistic and achievable schemes for our clients. The work is fulfilling and I feel that I am allowed to take responsibility and to make a difference.”

 

In the spirit of AECOM trying to ‘deliver a better world’ we seek to improve the transport of today for a better tomorrow. To achieve this we work collaboratively and creatively to serve our clients alongside our 20+ transport planning colleagues in our Birmingham office and with the rest of the teams in the UK and Ireland as well as colleagues worldwide.  

 

We have:

•    A strong team of experts to work with and learn from

•    A variety of different teams and opportunities worldwide within AECOM for whatever career pathway you want to take

•    Exciting projects (some not so exciting, let’s be honest) to work on ranging from local, national and international problems to solve to keep you busy

•    A flexible working policy – work/life balance is the key! We would also consider the role on either a full or part-time basis and are happy to look at a range of different working patterns

•    Dedicated mentors to help support you in your future training 

•    A Sports & Social Club, offering a wide range of activities to suit the wide range of people and interests across the office

•    A comprehensive internal training programme to teach you what you may want to learn but haven’t had the chance to yet

•    And last but not least, a free, on-site gym to help you stay fit and healthy

Minimum Requirements

You need:

•    You will have an analytical mind and background – you want to know the why’s and wherefores of things – especially if they transport related;

•    You will have knowledge and experience in transport modelling and forecasting and experience in appraisal and evaluation of transport proposals;

•    You have used and have good knowledge of simulation software packages e.g. CUBE, SATURN, PARAMICS, VISUM, VISSIM, TUBA and spreadsheet modelling to name a few;

•    You are good at managing your time to ensure you meet those pesky deadlines;

•    You need to have strong technical and report writing skills;

•    And you should be able to explain technical concepts to others, especially our graduates and anyone else who may ask…

 

Preferred Qualifications

It would be great if you had:

•    Membership or working towards membership of a chartered professional institution such as CIHT, TPS, CILT or ICE

•    A Master’s degree or PhD in Transport Planning or related subject/social based discipline
