Make a Real Difference Where It Matters Most.

Are you ready to turn your passion for sustainable transport into meaningful impact? Join Hampshire County Council and help shape the future of travel across one of the UK’s most diverse and vibrant counties.

This is more than just a job – it’s your chance to create healthier lifestyles, cleaner environments, and more sustainable communities for the people of Hampshire.

The Role:

We’re looking for an experienced and proactive Senior Travel Planner to join our dynamic My Journey Hampshire team. In this influential role, you’ll lead innovative initiatives that encourage smarter, greener travel choices and reduce reliance on single-occupancy car journeys.

You’ll play a key part in delivering behaviour change programmes, working with a wide range of partners including schools, businesses, and local communities, and helping to shape strategic transport planning across the county.

Step into a role where your expertise can shape the way people travel. Your work will champion walking, wheeling, cycling and public transport, playing a vital part in improving public health, easing congestion and helping Hampshire achieve its ambitious climate goals.

What you’ll do:

We’re seeking a proactive professional to lead the delivery of high-quality travel plans that create real impact. You’ll manage programmes, budgets, and timelines, lead stakeholder engagement, and coordinate My Journey initiatives. The role involves providing expert advice on sustainable travel, producing clear reports and presentations, and supervising team members to ensure workloads are effectively managed.

What we’re looking for:

We’re looking for a proactive professional with a relevant degree or equivalent experience, and a solid understanding of sustainable transport and travel planning. You’ll bring strong project management skills, excellent communication, and the ability to engage and influence stakeholders while building effective partnerships. Confident in using Microsoft Office, you’ll play a key role in delivering impactful, sustainability-driven projects, and be willing to learn and utilise a variety of IT systems to effectively support the work.

If you’re motivated to drive positive change and create a more sustainable future for Hampshire, we’d love to hear from you.

Why join us?

At Hampshire County Council, you’ll be part of a forward-thinking organisation that values your ideas and supports your growth. You’ll have the opportunity to make a tangible difference every day while working with a passionate, supportive team.

Our benefits package includes details of holiday entitlement, pension scheme, flexi-time scheme, family-friendly policies, interest-free travel loans, and discounts. We offer a flexible, motivating, and inclusive workplace. We have created an environment you can look forward to being part of, where you are empowered to be your best, with a culture built on teamwork where people can grow and develop in their roles.
