Responsibilities

As a graduate your, up to 2-year development programme will be made up of up of a number of placement rotations. Our aim is to equip you with the range of skills and experience you need for your successful career. Placements will last typically for between 6 and 12 months.
You will initially start with a corporate induction to TfL and the Elizabeth Line, followed by some more bespoke training and familiarisation with the Operations area of the business. Once completed you will then move into completing a number of placement opportunities across departments.
We also understand that everyone’s career is different, so every graduate’s journey is unique. Here’s an idea of what an Operations focused placement plan could involve:
Placement 1 – Network Operations – this is the Core of the operation that delivers the signalling, control and incident response for the Central Operating Section.
Placement 2 – Specialist Operations – this area oversees all operational projects that interface with the Elizabeth Line as well as leading our stakeholder management activities.
Placement 3 – Network Assurance – this area includes competence and assurance, ensuring both our people and our processes are fit and proper for our operation.
Placement 4 – Network Performance and Strategy – this area includes overseeing performance related activities for the Elizabeth Line, timetabling, future strategy and delay attribution.
You will also be offered a variety of training courses to support your development and opportunities to spend time with other parts of both the Elizabeth Line and wider TfL business where applicable.

Mission & Purpose

Every day, we help millions of people to make journeys across London: By Tube, bus, tram, car, bike – and more. People don’t associate us with journeys by river, on foot or via the air, but we help with that, too. Getting people to where they need to go has been our business for over 100 years, and it shows. We’re leaders in our field, and no other city’s transport system is quite as recognisable: Red buses, black taxis, Tube trains and roundels have become icons in their own right. Our main job is to keep the city moving, working and growing but to do that, we have to listen. Constant improvements across the network are fuelled by feedback and comments from customers, as well as work within communities, representative groups, businesses and other London transport stakeholders. But our progress also depends on technology and data. With the future at our fingertips, we’ve already used it to revolutionise travel payments (think Oyster and contactless payment cards), and improved travel information. Tech and data is essential, not just to our future, but to others’: third parties use our data to power apps and services vital to customer journeys. So what’s next? As well as continuing to deliver Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan’s strategy and commitments on transport, our programme of capital investments is still one of the largest. We launched the Elizabeth line, we’re modernising services and stations and making travel safer for all.
