London based with hybrid working
At the Royal Town Planning Institute (the RTPI), we champion the value of planning in building thriving places and communities. With over 27,000 members worldwide, we support planners at every stage of their career: raising professional standards, shaping planning policy, and proudly awarding chartered status, the highest professional accreditation in UK planning.
For over a century, we have empowered planners to deliver positive impact: creating healthy, inclusive, economically and environmentally sustainable places. As the voice of the profession, we advocate, support, and lead with purpose, professionalism, and passion.
The Head of Policy and Public Affairs leads the RTPI's policy development and public affairs activity across the UK and internationally. The role is responsible for identifying, developing and championing evidence-based public policy that advances the long term public interest through effective planning.
As a member of the Institute’s senior management community you will build and lead a high performing team, foster collaboration across the organisation and strengthen the RTPI’s reputation as the authoritative voice on planning policy.
You will also advise the Presidential Team, Trustees, Chief Executive, and Senior Executive team on emerging policy issues, spotting opportunities, and risks for the RTPI and our members.
With experience of leading, managing and developing high-performing teams, you will also have an understanding of public policy development, government decision making and influencing strategies. An understanding of planning and related public policy and processes is essential and as is experience of effectively shaping public policy and influencing decision makers within complex political environments. You will have experience of developing evidence-based policy positions that have influenced public debate, government policy, and / or legislative outcomes. Chartered membership of the RTPI is desirable but not essential.
