Join to apply for the Transport Safety (Road Design/ Traffic) - Junior to Mid-Level Professionals role at NTRO - National Transport Research Organisation.
At the National Transport Research Organisation (NTRO) we strive to be an innovation portal through which government and industry can gain great outcomes across all modes of transport. We create new knowledge through research, develop the means for improving practice, and provide expert advice to the Australia and New Zealand Transport Agencies and industry to ensure that our communities will always have safe, sustainable and efficient transportation networks. NTRO is a globally connected Not-for-profit, purpose and innovation-driven organisation that has over many decades built a strong presence within the Roads, Rail, Ports and Airports sectors which ensures that we cover all modes of the transport network in everything we do.
Across the globe, deaths and serious injuries on our road networks are on the rise. In Australia and New Zealand, close to 1500 lives are lost and nearly 50,000 seriously injured annually. At NTRO we are outraged that this happens and that it is worsening. We are determined to help bring about the fundamental, ground-breaking step-change that is needed to reverse the trend and push towards zero deaths on our networks. Current practices have delivered improvements over the last 50 years but are no longer sufficient to drive the human tragedy down. New thinking and importantly new solutions are needed, part of which is to challenge existing practice, implement that which still works and discard or improve that which is contributing to the reversal.
We are looking for creative thinkers and problem-solvers to join us full-time in Brisbane. This is your chance to shape the future, take on exciting challenges, and see your solutions come to life. Don't just watch change happen—be the one driving it. Hit apply and start your journey with us today
