TfL have a number of different Apprenticeship opportunities available, including roles in Transport Planning, Highways and Traffic, Tech & Data and a number of engineering roles within London Underground.
To apply for TfL’s Apprenticeship roles, you must have a minimum of 5 GCSE’s Grade A* – C or Grade 4 and above, including Maths and English Language (or equivalents) and be 18 years of age before the start date of the programme. (Please check the job description for specific schemes)
All TfL’s roles are based in London and offer a salary up to £19,815 per annum.
TfL’s transport planners are responsible for ensuring that all the millions of journeys made every single day in London are safe, reliable, and sustainable. With London’s population ever-increasing, it’s more important than ever that we deliver transport networks that encourage active travel (walking, cycling and public transport), improve air quality, and reduce the numbers of private cars on the roads. It takes a range of different disciplines to make these changes happen, including engineering, data analysis, computer modelling, project management and public communications – all of which you will get to engage with on this apprenticeship.
What will I be doing?
You’ll complete at least five, 6-month placements, examples of which may include:
- Planning Projects – conducting research and data analysis to support some of London’s major growth and redevelopment projects, and ensure these contribute to a sustainable transport system
- Bus Network Planning – assessing the performance of TfL’s bus routes; consulting the public and using data to identify performance improvements.
- Investment Delivery Planning – overseeing the delivery of projects on TfL’s own road network and other assets, and working with boroughs to deliver change on their own highways.
- Network Performance Delivery – Monitoring and adjusting traffic signal timings in real-time across London; collecting data and constructing computer models to test new scenarios and proposals on TfL roads.
