- Collaborating with specialists from across our business as part of multi-disciplinary teams, you’ll work on flagship regeneration, development and infrastructure projects, as well as supporting our clients with their digital transformation and developing new initiatives to help them deliver on their Net Zero commitments.
What you can bring:
Successful applicants will be flexible, self-motivated and will be expected to demonstrate a capability in any of the following fields:
- Place making and active travel
- Development of transport strategies and plans (local and strategic).
- Transport behavior change
- Transit orientated development

- Scheme appraisal and business case preparation.
Why work for AtkinsRéalis?
Our Transportation teams are reinventing transport for a challenging yet exciting future. We're creating new ideas and smart solutions for cities, people and the environment. You'll be working alongside some of the top people in our industry, solving challenges that bring together traditional engineering and new technologies. As part of our organization, you'll be in a privileged position, delivering what's right for governments and communities. You'll be helping us to improve our leading environmental performance while enabling others to do the same.
Security clearance:
This role may require security clearance and offers of employment will be dependent on obtaining the relevant level of clearance. If this is necessary, it will be discussed with you at interview. The vetting process is delivered by United Kingdom Security Vetting (UKSV) and may require candidates to provide proof of residency in the UK of 5 years or longer. If applying to this role please do not make reference to (in conversation) or include in your application or CV, details of any current or previously held security clearance.
We are committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community - a place where we can all be ourselves, thrive and develop.
