Liaise with local authorities, consultants and internal departments to manage planning applications and appeals
Monitor Local Plan updates and identify strategic land opportunities
Attend public consultations, planning committee meetings and stakeholder sessions as required
Maintain awareness of national and local planning policy changes and advise on implications

RTPI-accredited degree in Planning or a related field
MRTPI or working towards chartered status
1-4 years' experience in a planning role (either consultancy, developer, or local authority)
Strong understanding of the UK planning system and residential planning process
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines
Confident engaging with local authorities and external stakeholders
