About Us
Royal Greenwich is a borough synonymous with first class modern services. Our vibrant, diverse communities span Greenwich town centre in the west, to Thamesmead in the east, from the Greenwich Peninsula in the north to Eltham in the south. Royal Greenwich has a reputation for combining ambition with delivery. We are on a journey towards a low carbon future and the sustainability agenda will influence all areas of the Council’s work.
This is an opportunity to play a key role in supporting us with shaping the Council’s ambitions for our future transport network.
You will need to bring energy, tenacity and strong communication skills to this role and a real sense of working collaboratively with a wide range of service users.

This includes Parking Services, Highways and Traffic, Public Realm and Transport Planning. This busy and demanding role is challenging, and you’ll need to have excellent customer service skills, be a great communicator with a sound understanding of complaint/FOI’s policies and procedures.
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.
