Do you have a passion for London and want to help shape its future growth and infrastructure? Do you have strong project management skills and an ability to work with a wide range of stakeholders? If so, the GLA’s Infrastructure and Growth Team wants to hear from you.

This role provides you with a chance to work on a wide range of existing and new projects, supporting the development of initiatives designed to improve the way in which infrastructure is delivered in the city, with the goal of ensuring that London remains an attractive, equitable and productive place to live and work as it grows.

The team you will join is high-performing, benefiting from strong working relationships across the GLA.

Some key outputs of the team in recent years have included developing London’s first infrastructure plan and leading on the pioneering London Infrastructure Mapping Application.

A focus of your role will be supporting the recently created Infrastructure Development Coordination Team, which is piloting innovative projects to solve complex infrastructure challenges in London’s high growth areas.

At the GLA we offer an attractive range of benefits including 30 days’ annual leave pro rata, interest free season ticket and bicycle loan, pension and incremental salary scheme.

London's diversity is its biggest asset and we strive to ensure our workforce reflects London's diversity at all levels. You will be able to demonstrate a clear commitment to promoting diversity, equality and inclusion.
