Reducing the environmental impacts of transport will be vital to meeting legally-binding environmental targets. In 2023, 49% of nitrogen oxides and 26% of fine particulate matter emissions came from domestic transport. It is also important to ensure that the transport system is resilient to climate change. Weather-related delays on the rail system already cost the economy around £200-300m per year. Transport operators are also major landowners, with the combined estates of Network Rail and National Highways roughly equivalent to twice the size of the Isle of Wight.
We are looking to recruit an experienced analyst to build the evidence base on how transport impacts the environment and is impacted by climate change to inform government strategy and investment decisions. The role is a great opportunity to gain experience working on long-term, cross-modal, strategic issues and collaborating with analysts from other professions and departments. The role involves applying multidisciplinary analytical skills including economic appraisal, modelling, statistics, and research delivery.
The role sits in the Environment Strategy Analysis team, within the Strategy and Environment Analysis Division. Here, team members provide vital analysis on strategic transport matters. The role supports the Environment and Adaptation Strategy (EAST) Division, a team of around 20 policy officials leading DfT's environmental strategy. The postholder will work in a team of three analysts supporting EAST, led by one Grade 7 and one other SEO.
We are looking to recruit someone who is either an existing member of the Government Economics Service (GES), Government Operational Research Service (GORs) and Government Statistical Service (GSS) or an experienced analyst who meets the minimum requirements for one of these professions. If the successful applicant is not an existing Civil Servant, they will be expected to pass a ‘badging exercise’ to join one of these professions within six months of taking up the post.
Your responsibilities will include, but aren’t limited to:
- Designing and leading analysis to understand transport's impact on the environment and the impact of climate-related damage and disruption to the sector.
- Undertaking analysis on the impact of environmental policies and targets on the transport sector.
- Developing tools, evidence and guidance to help transport operators better understand the benefits of measures to enhance the environment and increase climate resilience.
- The job will involve a substantial amount of delivering through others, for example commissioning research and working closely with modal teams and other departments.
