Overview
Joining Arup The transport sector is transforming rapidly. Every passenger is a smart, multi-modal traveller, pushing transport systems to digitise and become more responsive to users. Climate change means operators need to find ways to both expand services and decarbonise. Across rail, roads, aviation and maritime, transport operators need to invest for a different future, while maintaining the ageing networks they already own. Arup is at the heart of these trends, helping authorities, network operators and the travelling public to arrive at solutions that work for them.

You will be Incorporated or Chartered civil engineer with UK design experience with proven client facing abilities. You will be involved in business development, which will include all aspects of bid support, project management, design liaison, and team management.
