Highways and Transport is back at North East Lincolnshire Council, creating a rare opportunity to be part of something from the beginning.
As we establish and grow this newly formed service, we’re bringing together talented people who want to do more than simply deliver services. We’re looking for people who want to influence how they are designed, developed and improved for the future.
From maintaining and improving our highways network, to shaping how people travel across North East Lincolnshire, the work we do touches the lives of residents, businesses and visitors every day. Now is an exciting time to join us as we invest in our people, strengthen our expertise and create a service fit for the future.
What will your day look like?
As a Senior Technician in the Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) team, you’ll work with colleagues to bring practical technical experience to a wide range of traffic and road safety issues that affect people's everyday lives in North East Lincolnshire.
- You’ll support the delivery of traffic and road safety programmes by administering all aspects of the statutory Traffic Regulation Order process. This will require you to work with colleagues to carry out public engagement, develop & test proposals as well as supporting colleagues to draft and publish legal Traffic Orders.
- You will need to confidently manage technical information, maintain accurate records and ensure that Traffic Orders are completed in line with statutory guidance and timescales.
- You’ll also be a key point of contact for routine technical queries, helping colleagues, Members, partners and the public understand information clearly and confidently.
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.
