Overview
Play your part in shaping London’s future
The Mayor of London is looking to appoint up to two additional Members to the Transport for London (TfL) Board to provide strategic guidance and stewardship to TfL, one of the world’s leading transport authorities. TfL’s Board plays a key role in London’s transport success.
As part of implementing the Mayor’s Transport Strategy we have an ambitious TfL strategy to deliver by 2030. This aims to ensure safe, affordable, sustainable, accessible, inclusive and reliable transport, and a sustainable financial footing to support London and transform the customer experience.
In 2025, TfL celebrated its 25th anniversary. We have been working to grow and improve transport in London to support jobs, homes, opportunities and economic growth across the capital. London has one of the busiest and most advanced transport networks in the world.
Currently delivering more than 21 million journeys every day, TfL runs the day-to-day operation of the Capital’s public transport network, including London’s buses, Underground, Elizabeth line, Docklands Light Railway, London Overground, London Trams, Cable Car and Santander Bikes. We also manage London’s strategic road network, run London River Services, Victoria Coach Station and the congestion and emission charging schemes, regulate London’s taxis and private hire vehicles and, in early 2026, will be responsible for the regulation of pedicabs. Our scale and network of circa 28,000 colleagues helps us make a real difference to millions of people every day.
As an organisation integral to London’s success, TfL plays a vital role in supporting and shaping London’s social and economic development.
Role and areas of focus
The Mayor appointed a new Board in September 2024 and further Members in 2025. We are now seeking up to two additional Members to strengthen the following areas:
* Safety and security and/or audit and risk and assurance, including experience of audit and assurance committees in a public sector environment.
* Experience in colleague engagement and reward, including remuneration committees, would be welcome.
* Knowledge and experience within a regulated or public sector environment.
Applicants will ideally have knowledge and experience within a regulated or public sector environment along with other desirable skills listed on the microsite.
You will have a proven understanding of the successes and financial challenges facing TfL, combined with a genuine interest and passion for London’s transport system and London’s future needs.
London’s diversity is its biggest asset and we strive to ensure Board Members are reflective of London’s diversity.
