Senior Transport Planner

Location: Basingstoke
Working: Hybrid
Salary: Up to £49,000 + Excellent Benefits

I'm working with one of the UK's largest independent transport planning consultancies, who are looking to strengthen their Basingstoke team with an experienced Senior Transport Planner. This is an excellent opportunity for a transport planner looking to take the next step in their career, working on a diverse range of development-related projects while taking greater responsibility for project delivery, client relationships, and mentoring junior colleagues.

The Role

You'll be involved in delivering a variety of transport planning projects, providing technical input, and working closely with clients, local authorities, and multidisciplinary project teams. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing and delivering development-related transport planning projects
  • Preparing Transport Assessments, Travel Plans, and Access Appraisals
  • Undertaking trip generation, distribution, assignment, and traffic impact assessments
  • Supporting transport strategies and development proposals
  • Using industry-standard software including TRICS, TEMPRO, Junctions, and LinSig
  • Applying relevant highway and transport design standards, including MfS, DMRB, and LTN 1/20
  • Liaising with clients, local authorities, and other stakeholders
  • Attending meetings and supporting public consultations where required
  • Supporting the delivery of highway and sustainable transport solutions
  • Mentoring and supporting junior members of the team
  • Contributing to bids, proposals, and business development activities

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.
