About Transdev Australasia

Transdev Australasia is a leading public transport company. Their local teams of over 5,700 employees operate the train, bus, coach, ferry and light rail services across Australia and New Zealand. With their partners in local government, public authorities and private companies, they deliver over 145 million passenger journeys every year on over 2,050 vehicles and vessels.

Your role

Transdev operates thousands of trips each day, taking customers from A to B. Schedulers enable this, designing timetables for the public and working for the drivers. A giant jigsaw puzzle with real-world outcomes, it’s about balancing maximum reliability with cost-effectiveness. Using your analytical, mathematical and spatial skills, you’ll produce highly optimised scheduling and timetabling solutions that improve the services, and the customer experience and make cities more sustainable.

Responsibilities:

• Provide timely and accurate contractual and other schedule exports as required (eg: TODIS for TDNSW, VDS, Mobitec, etc).
• Provision of reporting data to meet business requirements.
• Calibration of scheduling software based on all relevant rules and parameters
• Ensure system and data accuracy and integrity through effective data security, management and record keeping.
• Maintain and report accurate and complete records of planned costs including work hours, driver headcount, km travelled and peak vehicle requirements.

In the first 18 months, you’ll be placed in their bus, ferry, and light rail as well as head office operations across Australia. You’ll be consulted about your rotation and have a say in which role you take once you’ve finished the program (performance dependent).
