  • Support the preparation of planning statements, reports, and supporting documentation
  • Liaise with local planning authorities, consultants, and external stakeholders
  • Assist in the promotion of strategic land opportunities
  • Attend site visits, client meetings, and stakeholder consultations
  • Monitor planning applications and contribute to appeals where required
  • Maintain accurate project records and support general project coordination

About You

  • Degree qualified in Town Planning or a related discipline
  • 1+ year experience in a planning role (developer, consultancy, or local authority)
  • Strong understanding of the UK planning system and policy framework
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to manage workload effectively and work both independently and as part of a team
  • Commercial awareness and an interest in residential and development-led planning
  • Working towards (or willingness to work towards) RTPI chartership is desirable

What's on Offer

  • Opportunity to work within a leading development-focused planning environment
  • Exposure to high-profile residential and mixed-use schemes
  • Structured career development and RTPI support
  • Collaborative and supportive team culture
  • Hybrid working options (role dependent)
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
