Senior Planner | Employee-Owned Property Consultancy | West Sussex
Are you a Senior Planner with private sector experience looking for a role where you can truly take ownership of your projects, build meaningful client relationships, and enjoy a supportive, forward-thinking working environment?
About:
My client is a leading firm of Estate and Letting Agents, Chartered Surveyors, and Chartered Town Planners, providing a diverse range of professional property services across Kent, Surrey, and Sussex.
With five strategically located offices and a strong regional presence, the business is proud to be a progressive employee-owned company, combining traditional values with a modern, collaborative culture.

The Role:
Due to continued growth, the business is seeking a Senior Planner to join its established and experienced team, based from the Pulborough office.
This is a rare opportunity to lead planning projects from start to finish, managing your own caseload and client relationships rather than operating in a purely support role.
