As a Planner (or Senior Planner), you could accelerate your town planning career by playing a key role within a well-established dynamic SME planning practice.

Our client is located in London and is currently consulting on a healthy and highly diverse portfolio of major projects nationally, from residential schemes to hotels, industrial and logistics, retail and urban regeneration schemes.

They have a highly experienced and successful team of work-winning Planning Directors for you to learn from, so you will not be twiddling your thumbs! A luxury in this market...

With their team, you could take greater ownership of the projects you are consulting on, learn the wider planning process and start to develop your very own client base to progress your career.

Entrepreneurship and a pro-active approach to work is celebrated here, and my client is eager to promote Planners for their commitment to excellence, so if you perform you will be rewarded!

• Excellent written communication skills and strong interpersonal abilities.

In return for your dedication, you will receive a competitive salary and benefits package, ongoing training, and the opportunity to be part of an exceptional team and company that fosters career progression. Here, the focus is on the quality of your work output rather than strict working hours.
