  • Preparing planning applications and documents.
  • Engaging with clients, stakeholders, and local authorities.
  • Collaborating with the team to ensure projects meet deadlines and objectives.

 

What We're Looking For:

  • Planner ready to progress to Senior Town Planner, Senior Town Planner or Associate Planner
  • At least 4 years professional town planning experience
  • Experience managing the planning application process of major projects.
