Edinburgh recruiting for transport roles

Transport for Edinburgh (TfE) and Edinburgh Trams are recruiting for new people in their top roles. TfE is searching for a new chief executive, while Edinburgh Trams is on the hunt for a new general manager.

After a successful first year, Edinburgh Trams is developing an integrated transport network in the Scottish capital in partnership with Lothian Buses (which is also seeking a new managing director).

All of the new recruits will report to the chairman of their respective board, with the general manager of Edinburgh Trams having ‘dotted line accountability’ to the chief executive of TfE. The recruitment process is being managed by consultant Livingstone James.
