All Things Urban

We work to make London the best big city in the world. The Mayor runs important services in London like policing, fire and transport, with an annual budget of £17bn. The London Assembly holds the Mayor to account on behalf of Londoners. It regularly questions the Mayor and investigates important issues in London.

This is an exciting opportunity to become Research and Support Officer for the Green Members of the London Assembly.

You will lead on transport policy, working closely with the Team Coordinator, two other Research and Support Officers, an apprentice and two elected politicians in a dynamic, friendly team. Your work will include undertaking research and providing policy briefings, drafting questions to the Mayor, liaising with the public and external organisations, managing correspondence and casework, organising meetings and writing clear communications material for a range of audiences. The work is fast moving and varied.

You will need a good understanding of the work of the London Assembly and a high level of political awareness, together with sound organisational, administrative and written communication skills, along with experience of building relationships with a wide range of people.
