As a Kerbside Programme Officer with our Strategic Transport and Connectivity Department, you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success. Working with partners, stakeholders and other Council services, you’ll focus on projects that enhance the health, safety and inclusivity of our streets, and support wider aims to increase active travel as part of our ambition to decarbonise transport and reduce congestion. Supporting the delivery of cycling, active travel, cycle parking, bus priority and road safety schemes, and ensuring compliance with agreed scopes, standards and timescales, you’ll also coordinate with internal teams, contractors, designers and suppliers to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget and conform to guidance standards.
Conducting site visits and attending project meetings, you’ll report on relevant KPIs and targets, monitor performance, prepare the documentation required for governance, procurement and legal processes, and work on the cost information and inputs required for funding submissions. Ensuring all work is carried out in line with legal, regulatory, policy and procedural requirements, and ready to assist with equality, safety and environmental impact assessments, we’ll also expect you to keep accurate records relating to the performance and delivery of your projects.
Always ready to offer clear updates to senior colleagues on the progress of projects, and willing to respond to any Freedom of Information requests, this is a role where you’ll engage with residents, businesses, suppliers and local organisations, work that will include exhibitions, drop-ins, online events and community sessions. With this in mind, you should be prepared to handle any objections, concerns and issues raised through consultation processes, produce briefing materials and updates for senior officers, and maintain empathetic and collaborative relationships with everyone you interact with.
