Job Introduction
Main Responsibilities
The advertised role will require working as part of the of the Transport Services team co-ordinating three work development programmes for the LLCS and HEB teams. The HEB is currently being rebranded and will soon be known as the Urgent Care Badge (UCB).
The LLCS controls the movement of heavy goods vehicles over 18 tonnes. It operates at night and at weekends on specific roads in London, helping to minimise noise pollution. The scheme has been in operation since 1985 and was decriminalised in 2004.
Following a detailed report commissioned by London Councils into the current level of on-street LLCS signage, London Councils is looking for an officer to manage the signs upgrade program with boroughs, Transport for London (TfL) and stakeholders to ensure that signs advising of the controls are installed, upgraded or replaced.
The LLCS team is also seeking the officer to oversee the continued phased installation of Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) enforcement cameras at key locations with our contractors. This will require developing close working relationships with both internal and external officers including those at boroughs, TfL, and the private sector.
The HEB scheme allows people who deliver primary healthcare to attend medical emergencies in patients' homes by providing a dedicated parking badge. All London Boroughs have agreed to the scheme.
London Councils is currently working with a new external partner to finalise the development of a new interactive Case Management System (CMS) which will be launched following the introduction of the new UCB. London Councils is looking for an officer to help manage these processes and relationships as well as managing the final aspects of the rebrand and monitor future progress.

Our Recruitment Approach
The application process involves answering a small number of application questions aligned to the essential criteria for the role. All applications will be processed using a blind sifting method. This means that personal identifying details will be removed to ensure fair and unbiased shortlisting of applications.
The panel sees only the anonymised generated CV that Tribepad builds from the Education and Employment History sections of the application form.
Uploading a personal CV is optional and only helps auto-populate these sections - it does not replace completing them.
Please ensure these sections are fully completed. If they’re left blank, key information won’t appear in the anonymised pack and fair review becomes harder.
Your full details and original CV are not shared with the panel until after the shortlist is agreed and you are invited to interview.
We are committed to equal opportunities and encourage applications from all backgrounds. Reasonable adjustments will be made to support candidates during the recruitment process.
