About the role
Your Team
Our Roads Net Zero team sits within our wider Roads group and guides clients and colleagues through transport and infrastructure decarbonisation, embedding carbon thinking at the heart of our projects.
We deliver carbon assessment and management for transport infrastructure projects; quantifying and assessing carbon to inform strategies and plans, provide carbon management reporting and develop carbon management policies and advice for clients.
Since its inception three years ago, our Transport Net Zero team has led industry change—authoring the Department for Transport’s Quantifiable Carbon Reduction guidance; working with Sub‑National Transport Bodies to develop baseline emissions models and support regional decarbonisation strategies; advising local authority clients; and developing carbon management policies for major transport programmes and organisations.
As one of the largest suppliers of professional services to various clients, we influence change through client engagement, we invest heavily in R&D to drive innovation across decarbonisation and climate resilience. Our current frameworks and strategic partnerships spanning National Highways (SDF), National Gird (GGP) work and other frameworks provide a strong platform for impact and growth.
Joining the team at this critical time for climate action presents a great opportunity to influence transport policies, shape WSP’s and our client’s decarbonisation approaches, and play a meaningful role on the national pathway to net zero.
