- Preparing and managing planning applications
- Supporting appeals and site promotion work
- Researching policy and site constraints, and drafting reports and representations

About you
- Experience in planning, in either the private or public sector (a Planning Officer looking to move into consultancy is very welcome)
- A degree in planning or a related subject, and ideally working towards RTPI membership or already a member
- A good understanding of the planning system and a keen interest in the commercial side of property
- Clear, confident written and verbal communication
