Sustainable Mobility Planners (Varying grades) in Edinburgh

About Pell Frischmann Pell Frischmann is a specialist advisory and technical consultancy operating across the built and natural environment, helping to shape a better future for the communities in which we work. We offer consultancy services, with access to specialist sister companies and partners, to support both public and private-sector clients. We work across sectors encompassing buildings, infrastructure, and regeneration.

Originally formed in 1926, we have a unique heritage in delivering client-focused solutions that deliver value through our commercial awareness, sustainable aspirations, and innovative approach. Our distinctive future is defined by our ownership; Pell Frischmann is a part of RSBG SE, the patient capital investment arm of RAG‑Stiftung. RAG‑Stiftung is a foundation with the long‑term public purpose to deal with the environmental and social commitments resulting from the closing of Germany’s coal mining industry. RSBG SE’s mission is to generate sustainable funds for the foundation; so, our work directly contributes to the challenge of fighting global pollution and climate change.

With a strong and growing presence in Scotland, our Scottish team works across the mobility sector focused on the development of transport policy, strategy, business cases, development planning, energy and developing innovative tools to shape a more sustainable and well‑connected future. Celebrating our centenary year in 2026, this is an exciting time to be in team Pell Frischmann locally and nationally.

The differentiators of working for Pell Frischmann We think local and work local with our project teams similarly resourced on this basis. With our work wholly delivered in the UK, this ensures the continued development of our early to mid‑career professionals, and lots of opportunities for ‘hands‑on’ learning. We provide hands‑on senior staff input throughout delivery, bringing continual learning and mentoring for our early to mid‑career professionals. All that we do is underpinned by our Noble Purpose where the hard work of everyone across the business actively generates sustainable funds to reinvest in protecting the environment.

Locally we embed this purpose and positive ethos it brings into in the way we operate, the way we think and how we go about delivering our projects. We do more than simply collaborate with clients, we also work as an extension to their team providing more opportunities to ‘see things from the other side’ and gain more skills early on. We adopt an agile business model and culture, which is non‑bureaucratic, innovative, and pragmatic that empowers opportunities for all. We do not stand still - innovation is an underlying cornerstone of our business and which everyone in a delivery role is empowered to bring to all projects where there is the opportunity regardless of individual size or ‘gloss’.

The Role We are seeking skilled Sustainable Mobility Planners at various levels to join our dynamic and growing team in Scotland. You will play a key role in developing and delivering innovative transport initiatives that prioritise active travel, public transport, and new mobility solutions. The successful candidate(s) will work on a diverse portfolio of projects, from policy development, research, innovation tools, appraisal, engagement as well as supporting our client delivery partnerships with lots of other opportunity to further your expertise in the development planning and renewables sector and bring your ideas and thoughts to the table in, providing expert advice to a wide range of clients in Scotland. This will also be a full remote role as part of our Scotland team, and knowledge of the local markets will be essential.
