About the Role
The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority is investing in the future of transport—and the Network Planning Manager will be central to shaping that future.
Reporting to the Head of Network Development, this strategic role leads the development of a long-term vision for the region’s transport network, going beyond current enhancements to imagine a truly integrated, sustainable, and inclusive system. The postholder will define how different modes—rail, rapid transit, bus, active travel, and freight—interact to deliver seamless connectivity and support economic growth, environmental goals, and social inclusion.
Key responsibilities include coordinating network expansion planning, setting design principles for future mobility, and driving modal shift away from private car dependency. The role also leads strategic freight initiatives, supports national programmes such as the Liverpool–Manchester Railway, and ensures alignment with spatial planning and housing development across the region.
The Network Planning Manager will work across internal teams and external partners to deliver joined-up solutions, pilot innovative transport concepts, and represent the region in national forums. The role includes oversight of feasibility assessments, stakeholder engagement, and governance reporting, and acts as a key escalation point for strategic rail programmes. 
About the person
You bring a strategic, multi-modal perspective to transport planning—grounded in technical insight and shaped by a clear understanding of regional, national, and international connectivity.
You’re confident leading initiatives that span freight, passenger transport, and infrastructure optimisation. You understand the critical role of rail freight in supporting economic growth and environmental goals, and you’re ready to champion new schemes that improve access to the Port of Liverpool and unlock wider logistics potential.
You’re energised by the future evolution of the Liverpool City Region’s transport offer—from rapid transit and bus network transformation to the potential prioritisation of further MEL extensions beyond those currently in development. You’re comfortable navigating feasibility, capacity, and utilisation studies, and you bring credibility when representing the region in national forums such as the Liverpool Taskforce and Transport for the North.
You understand the importance of cross-boundary connectivity—with Lancashire, Cheshire, and North Wales—and you’re able to build strong partnerships that support seamless movement across administrative borders. You also recognise the strategic value of international air connectivity and its role in supporting inclusive growth.
Analytically strong and politically astute, you can assess complex options, manage competing priorities, and present clear recommendations to senior stakeholders. You’re motivated by the opportunity to shape a transport network that is integrated, future-ready, and genuinely transformative.
 If you think you match the job description, and our values, then click on the link to apply.

<ul>
<li>•Proven experience in leading strategic transport planning initiatives across multiple modes (e.g. rail, bus, rapid transit, freight), including the development of integrated network proposals and long-term connectivity strategies.

<li>•Demonstrable ability to manage complex stakeholder relationships across local, regional, and national bodies—such as Transport for the North, local authorities, and infrastructure operators—to deliver collaborative transport solutions. 
</li>
<li>•Strong analytical and programme leadership skills, with a track record of contributing to feasibility studies, capacity/utilisation assessments, and prioritisation of major transport investments, including cross-boundary and international connectivity.</li>

Are you looking for a career where you can make a life-changing difference to children and families? Do you want to be part of a team that gives children brighter futures and supports carers in their vital role? As a Support Worker with Foster Wales (Gwent Region), you’ll have the chance to do exactly that. This is more than a job – it’s a unique opportunity to be at the heart of fostering, working alongside children, their families, and foster carers to provide the right help, at the right time. Every day brings new challenges, new rewards, and the knowledge that your work is helping children feel safe, supported, and loved.
About the role
In this role, you’ll be part of a close-knit and passionate regional team, supporting parent and child foster placements across Gwent. Your work will be varied and meaningful – one day you could be helping a parent build confidence in their new role, the next you might be planning and running a support group for foster carers or assisting with a child’s transition into a new placement.
You’ll be a key point of contact for families, providing practical and emotional support where it’s needed most. This might include attending events, supervising contact sessions, offering post-placement guidance, or stepping in with hands-on interventions to ensure placements are stable and successful. You’ll also be involved in recruitment and training, helping us find and prepare the foster carers who can provide safe and nurturing homes for children in our communities.
This is a role full of variety, where no two days are ever the same. You’ll be at the heart of making sure children, families, and carers feel supported, valued, and empowered – and you’ll see first-hand the positive impact your work has on their lives.
About you
We know that the right person for this role is someone who cares deeply about making a difference. You’ll be someone who can build trusting relationships, stay calm under pressure, and bring empathy and understanding into everything you do. Teamwork is central to this role, so you’ll enjoy working alongside colleagues, carers, and professionals, sharing ideas and supporting one another to deliver the best outcomes for children.
You don’t need to have all the answers on day one – what matters most is your commitment to learning, growing, and being there for families in their time of need. You’ll have access to regular training, professional development, and supervision, so you’ll always feel supported and able to develop your skills. If you’re looking for a career where you’ll be valued, supported, and able to make a genuine difference – this is it.
About us
Foster Wales is the national network of not-for-profit fostering services, working together across Wales to find and support foster families for local children. Here in the Gwent region, we’re proud to work as one team across five local authorities, supporting children, foster carers, and families in our communities.
Our mission is simple: we believe that children belong close to home, where they can stay connected to the people and places that matter most. To make this happen, we recruit, train, and support foster carers – and that’s where you come in. As part of Foster Wales Gwent, you’ll be joining a dedicated, friendly, and supportive team where your ideas and contributions will be valued. You’ll also benefit from being part of a national organisation, with access to resources, expertise, and development opportunities that support your growth as a professional.
We also recognise that our employees are our greatest asset, which is why we offer a supportive and inclusive work environment, along with fantastic benefits designed to help you grow and succeed:
Competitive Salary: 
We value your experience and expertise and offer a highly competitive salary package.
Local Government Pension Scheme:

Work within a collaborative and inclusive culture that values your contributions.
Ready to take the next step?
If you’re ready to start a rewarding career where no two days are the same, where your work has real meaning, and where you’ll be part of a team that changes lives – we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and join Foster Wales in helping children build brighter futures, close to home. Together, we can make a difference.
