Transport Modeller

Job Description

What we do:

“One of the really great things I enjoy working with AECOM is that in my daily work I encounter a wide range of problems, and am given the freedom to experiment and innovate to find a solution.  I feel that I am making a difference.”

 

This is what we do in the Transport Modelling team. In the spirit of AECOM trying to ‘deliver a better world’ we are trying to improve the transport of today for a better tomorrow. Whether we are assessing the impact of town development on a transport network or identifying synergies and inter-dependencies between schemes; we are working collaboratively with the rest of our 20+ transport planning colleagues in our Bristol office and the rest of the teams in the UK and AECOM to create innovative solutions to the problems our clients are having. We are looking for an additional member to join our team and would consider candidates at both Consultant and Senior Consultant level.

We have:

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

•    A variety of different teams and opportunities 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 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 comprehensive internal training programme to teach you what you may want to learn but haven’t had the chance to yet

 Minimum Requirements:

You need:

•    As a Senior Consultant you will be expected to mentor graduates, impart your wisdom and check tasks undertaken by your more junior colleagues

•    You should have the ability to handle the project management of smaller projects, including cost control and client liaison

•    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. SATURN, PARAMICS, CUBE, EMME, 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
