We build long-term trusted partnerships to create a world where lives are enriched through the implementation of new and exciting ideas. We have a vision to shape the future of transportation, to lead where others follow and to deliver the future of mobility today.

Our Transportation business covers all aspects of multidisciplinary design and management from inception to options appraisal through to detailed scheme design and delivery support.

The Transportation division faces into the three key markets: Local Transport, Strategic Highways and Regional Roads, and Rail and Transit. A critical component of our workload is derived from ‘practice led bids’ developed by our technical teams typically for regional clients which include local and combined mayoral authorities, regional bodies, developers and contractors.

  • Oversee quality aspects of practice led bids – providing robust review and challenge on submissions.
  • Ensure compliance with Atkins’ procedures.
  • Proactive involvement in the development and implementation of initiatives to improve the quality, compliance and success of bids.

Expectation:

  • A proven track record of successfully delivering bids from client information capture, through PQQ and ITT stage, feedback and lessons learnt.
  • Demonstrate experience in leading bid teams from setting a strategy though to delivery of outcomes.
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to communicate well at all levels and in all forums from one-to-ones through to group workshops and facilitation.
  • Strong influencing skills to ensure that the expert knowledge held in our teams is maximised on each opportunity.
