Authorities in Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Gloucestershire and West Northamptonshire are particularly active, with several new officer, senior and principal roles appearing in recent days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The market continues to favour candidates with strong report\u2011writing skills, confidence presenting at committee and experience handling complex caseloads. Hybrid working remains widely offered, but councils are increasingly emphasising structured progression routes and professional development support to attract long\u2011term talent rather than short\u2011term cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Major applications, regeneration schemes and strategic sites are driving much of the workload, with many authorities highlighting the need for planners who can balance speed of decision\u2011making with robust policy alignment. The next six weeks are expected to be one of the busiest recruitment windows of the year.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Development Management Activity Strengthens Across Key Regions Development Management teams across England are reporting a noticeable uplift in application volumes as councils return from the summer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1059","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
