Tarson works with planning consultancies, developers, housebuilders and local authorities across the UK. We regularly support employers hiring for Planner roles in the Newcastle area, where demand remains consistently strong across development management, regeneration, mixed‑use schemes and major infrastructure.
Newcastle is one of the most active planning markets in the North East, shaped by major regeneration zones, city‑centre residential growth, commercial development, transport‑led expansion, heritage considerations and large‑scale mixed‑use masterplanning. As a result, Planner roles in the region typically offer exposure to a wide variety of project types and technical challenges.
Typical responsibilities include preparing and managing planning applications, drafting supporting statements, coordinating inputs from technical consultants, advising clients on development strategy, reviewing planning policy, and contributing to public consultations and appeals. Newcastle‑based roles often involve regeneration, tall‑building residential schemes, commercial development, strategic land promotion, heritage‑sensitive work and transport‑related planning projects.
If you are an experienced planning professional seeking progression, project variety or a move into consultancy, development or local government, Tarson can connect you with employers actively hiring in the Newcastle market. Submit your CV to be considered for upcoming opportunities.
