The unique breadth of services in Transportation, combined with our scale, makes Atkins the leading UK transportation infrastructure consultancy. We create a culture and environment to inspire our people, ensure collaboration with our clients and continue to shape the future of mobility.
The UK transport sector is experiencing unprecedented levels of investment and SNC Lavalin/Atkins is playing a lead role in helping our clients develop, plan and deliver projects as part of long-term infrastructure programmes.
The sector has seen significant growth driven by long-term funding commitments from Government in recognition of the critical role that strategic connectivity plays in supporting economic growth. Our clients face key challenges in defining and delivering their long-term programmes, maximising the value of assets and embracing new technologies so that they can deliver the best outcomes for users and for the economy.
These challenges are driving the need for change in the way our clients do business enabling them to deliver their investments and deliver against their strategic priorities. Our Transport Business Consulting and Advisory Practice sits within our Transportation Consultancy business and helps our clients to solve some of their most critical business challenges.
Our Business Transformation team, in Transport Business Consulting and Advisory Practice is a relatively new team set up in the last quarter of 2017 to enable us to move outside Atkins traditional core services for Transportation clients, including working with new clients, to create a differentiator through solving domain specific strategic business challenges.

- The roles can be based in either our London, Epsom, Birmingham, Warrington, Manchester or Cardiff offices. Travel to attend client sites across the UK and potentially overseas, as required, is key.

- You have at least a degree or equivalent qualification and may hold, or be working towards, a professional qualification.
- You will have a variety of consulting capabilities and techniques to suit different situations. These might include strategy development – both business and delivery, research, analysis, organisational development, cultural and behavioural change, business process analysis and improvement, change impact assessment, coaching and/or mentoring; training development and delivery.
- We require highly collaborative individuals who can deliver great results and operate to high behavioural standards and business ethics and who are capable of maximising the value of networks within and outside Atkins, including with our market facing teams.
You should have well developed emotional intelligence and the ability to flex your style to suit different stakeholders and the ability to build trusted and lasting relationships with clients at all levels in a business environment. - You will have excellent written communication skills and the ability to present and deliver outcomes which are compelling, accurate, and engaging both to clients and in support of our business development and work winning activities.
Working for Atkins:
- With Atkins you will be in a trusted, supported position, where you are able to apply both existing skills and develop new skills in complex and challenging situations. You will be able to share your knowledge and experience and learn from others within the team and you will have opportunities to further develop your own expertise as a multi-skilled consultant.
