Traffic Regulation Order; TRO Co-ordinator

Job Description

What if you could do the kind of work the world needs? At WSP, you can access our global scale, contribute to landmark projects and connect with the brightest minds in your field to do the best work of your life. You can embrace your curiosity in a culture that celebrates new ideas and diverse perspectives. You can experience a world of opportunity and the chance to shape a career as unique as you.

We have a new vacancy for a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) Co‑ordinator to join our Project Delivery Team within the Highways & Infrastructure team based in County Hall, Norwich. WSP’s long‑term contract with Norfolk County Council started in 2014 and has proved to be successful. This collaborative approach of technical excellence from WSP, combined with Norfolk County Council’s enviable record of securing project funding, provides an opportunity to be part of some exciting and diverse opportunities.

As a TRO Coordinator, your role will be at the heart of our high performing team. Using your strong organisational skills and attention to detail, you will play a central role in supporting the safe and efficient management of Norfolk’s road network.

A significant part of the role involves developing, coordinating, and progressing Traffic Regulation Orders linked to developer‑led schemes, ensuring that new developments integrate safely and effectively with the existing highway network. These TROs are the legal tools that allow the council to introduce measures such as speed limits, parking controls, and movement restrictions to help keep Norfolk’s roads safe and easy to use.

In this TRO Co‑ordinator role your main responsibilities will be:

• Coordinate and manage the TRO lifecycle, including drafting documents, collating information, and supporting the legal consultation process.
• Work independently to prioritise tasks, meet deadlines, and ensure accurate and timely progress of TROs.
• Interpret and analyse maps, drawings, and technical plans to support TRO preparation and review.
• Engage with multiple stakeholders, including developers, engineers, legal teams, councillors, and the public to provide information, gather input, and resolve queries.
• Prepare clear and professional written communications, including the supporting documentation required for Legal Services to draft the TRO and associated public notice, alongside reports and responses to stakeholder enquiries.
• Provide verbal communication and updates to colleagues, partners, and stakeholders as required.
• Support the review of legal documentation and contribute to ensuring compliance with statutory requirements.
• Maintain accurate records and ensure documentation is compliant with statutory and internal governance requirements.
• Assist with process improvements, data management, and coordination of TRO‑related meetings or consultations.
• Provide ad‑hoc support to the Traffic Regulation Order Manager.

• Confidence in reading and interpreting maps, plans, and technical drawings.
• A methodical, organised, and detail‑focused approach to work.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• The ability to manage workloads independently and meet deadlines.
• Confidence engaging with multiple stakeholders, including external organisations and developers.
• Good IT skills, including MS Office and digital mapping tools.
• Experience in TROs, highways, planning, or transport‑related work (desirable but not essential).
• Familiarity with statutory processes, public consultation, or regulatory compliance (desirable but not essential).
