About Us

Transport for London (TfL) plays a vital role in delivering the Mayor’s ambitious programme for a more universal, affordable, accessible and safe transport network for all of London.

By 2041, we aim to make 80 per cent of all journeys by foot, cycle or public transport. To do this we need to prioritise health and the quality of people’s experience in everything we do.

Presently, major cities around the world are taking a stand to end the toll of deaths and injury seen on their roads and transport networks by committing to Vision Zero. Working with SHE means making a meaningful contribution towards achieving Vision Zero. With your effort, talent and ideas, we will no doubt move closer towards realising Vision Zero’s plans to make London a safer, healthier and greener place.

The pan-TfL Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) Directorate is committed to improving our safety performance, as well as the health and wellbeing of our staff and corporate environmental performance.

About the Role

You will develop and embed the SHE assurance strategy and frameworks to ensure compliance with Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) regulation within and external to TfL. One of your most valuable contributions in this role will be developing and maintaining the systems and tools used by the SHE Assurance Team and key business areas, for collating information from assurance activities, and providing insight to be shared across TfL.

The SHE Directorate has undergone an exciting transformation, and this role provides an exciting opportunity to make a positive impact and truly shape the future direction of safety, health and environment at TfL and ultimately across London.
