Shropshire Council

Join Shropshire Council's Passenger Transport Group and help shape the future of bus services across one of England's largest rural counties. Our team delivers a wide range of transport services, working with communities, operators and partners to keep people connected to work, education, healthcare and essential services.

Role Overview

As Bus Reform Technical Officer, you will lead key projects to modernise local bus services, strengthen partnerships with operators, and ensure Shropshire remains well placed to secure future Government investment. This is an exciting opportunity to influence transport policy, work on high-profile projects and make a real difference to public transport across the county. We are a supportive, collaborative team that values innovation, professional development and new ideas, offering the opportunity to take ownership of meaningful projects in a fast-moving and rewarding environment.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
