Senior Principal (Transport) – London (Hybrid) – Competitive Salary


We are partnering with a leading economics consultancy to appoint a Senior Principal to join their expanding Transport practice. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced transport economist to take a leadership role, delivering high-profile advisory projects while driving the continued growth of a highly respected consulting team.


Working with clients across government, regulators, infrastructure owners, operators and investors, you'll provide strategic economic advice on some of the most significant challenges shaping the future of transport, including infrastructure investment, regulation, competition, decarbonisation and market design.


Role:

As a Senior Principal, you'll play a key role in leading complex client engagements, developing long-term client relationships and contributing to the strategic direction of the transport practice. Alongside project leadership, you'll support continued growth with new business efforts, mentoring junior economists and representing the business across the transport and economics sectors.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead the delivery of complex transport economics and advisory projects from inception through to completion.
  • Provide expert advice on areas including economic regulation, transport policy, competition, market design, infrastructure investment and decarbonisation.
  • Build and maintain trusted relationships with senior stakeholders across government, regulators, transport operators and investors.
  • Identify and secure new business opportunities through proposals, bids and strategic client engagement.
  • Represent the business through thought leadership, industry events and publications.
  • Mentor and develop junior team members, fostering a collaborative and high-performing culture.
  • Ensure the highest standards of analytical quality across multiple client engagements.


Key Skills:

  • Ideally a MSc or PhD in Economics
  • 10+ years of experience within economic consulting, transport advisory, government, regulatory bodies or a related environment.
  • Strong expertise in transport economics with experience advising clients on complex regulatory, commercial or policy issues.
  • Knowledge across areas such as economic regulation, transport appraisal, competition economics, infrastructure investment, market design, funding, demand modelling or decarbonisation.
  • Experience working across sectors such as rail, aviation, roads, ports, logistics, public transport or emerging mobility.
  • Proven ability to lead large-scale consulting engagements and manage senior client relationships.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills with the ability to explain complex economic concepts clearly.
  • Strong leadership skills with experience mentoring and developing high-performing teams.


Benefits:

  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
  • Hybrid working model offering flexibility.
  • Generous annual leave allowance with the option to purchase additional holiday.
  • Enhanced parental leave.
  • Private healthcare.
  • Income protection and life assurance.
  • Extensive learning and development opportunities, including structured career progression and mentoring.
  • Opportunity to work on market-leading transport projects with high-profile clients across the UK and internationally.
  • Collaborative, employee-focused culture with genuine opportunities to influence the growth of the business.
