Tarson supports employers across the Midlands as planning teams respond to rising caseloads linked to green belt pressure, infrastructure corridors, and energy & renewables projects. These themes continue to shape demand for Planning Officers with strong development management experience.
Typical responsibilities include coordinating EIA work, supporting viability negotiations, and managing stakeholder engagement across a varied caseload. Officers able to balance minor and complex applications are particularly sought after across Midlands authorities.
The Midlands is seeing notable activity around transport‑led growth, with several councils progressing station‑adjacent regeneration and corridor‑based development. Officers familiar with transport‑linked planning considerations will find strong alignment with regional priorities.
Tarson is frequently contacted by organisations seeking planners for future projects as development programmes progress across the Midlands.
