About the Role:

Lambeth Council is seeking a dynamic and analytical Senior Transport Planner to lead the development of our walking and cycling policy – placing data, evidence, and people at the centre of our approach to delivering a greener, healthier borough.

As the Walking & Cycling Policy Lead, you will be at the forefront of shaping Lambeth’s sustainable transport vision. This role is key to embedding a data-driven culture across transport strategy and delivery – ensuring decisions are rooted in robust evidence, informed by emerging trends, and evaluated against measurable outcomes.

You will bring technical expertise in transport planning, combined with a strong command of transport and related data sources. Your work will support the council’s long-term objectives on climate action, inclusive growth, and health equity — translating complex datasets into impactful policies and engaging insights.

This is a high-profile role, offering the opportunity to influence change at scale. We're looking for someone who is experienced, creative in problem-solving, confident with data and digital tools, and focused on how transport can improve lives and places.
