• Proactively contribute to company growth through business development activities
• Inspire and develop less-experienced members of staff by freely sharing your knowledge

We think the ideal candidate will also have:

• A sound understanding of behaviour change theory and an appreciation of the factors influencing mode choice
• Specialist knowledge in the application and evaluation of smarter travel measures
• Experience of establishing and coordinating area-wide travel plans and business travel planning networks for a range of organisations
• A deep understanding of transport policy and current issues and creative approaches to dealing with them
• Exceptional communication and engagement skills
