Job Description

The company has been established for over 50 years and is a practice of Chartered Surveyors, Town Planners, Land Agents and Property Consultants that serve a strong landowner and farming client base.

Our client is not a national land agency with all the associated demands that a national practice has. Rather, our client prides themselves on maintaining a long-lasting relationship with clients and can tailor to their needs accordingly, but importantly their clients know who is personally managing their interests and this creates trust and consistency.

From a planning & development perspective, our client's work is typically in the Green Belt, land on the urban fringe and within built-up commercial allocations. Projects will typically fall in the agricultural, industrial and buildings, waste handling facilities, strategic commercial and residential urban extensions.

In this role you will support clients on enforcement, breaches of planning control, certificates of lawfulness, regularisation by way of a retrospective planning application, and providing clients with comprehensive planning advice.

Ideal Candidate

-Have previous Planning experience (2-4 years)

-MRICS or MRTPI (or working towards submission)

-Be an imaginative problem solver

-Have a strong ability to communicate articulately and accurately in person and in writing

-Be dynamic and ambitious and keen to take on responsibility

Training & Development

The role will include ongoing coaching from the Director who will work with you to help you realise your career objectives.
