Shrewsbury, North West
Tarson works with planning teams across the region as they prepare for new development phases and respond to shifting growth priorities. Shrewsbury continues to see steady planning activity, with employers seeking planners who can balance strategic oversight with detailed casework.
The area is experiencing development pressure linked to regeneration activity, rural development challenges, and energy & renewables projects emerging across Shropshire. Growth is also being driven by logistics and commercial expansion around key transport corridors.
Employers are seeking professionals confident in managing major applications, coordinating EIA work, and preparing committee reports for complex schemes. Planners with experience in supporting viability negotiations and managing stakeholder engagement are particularly valued.
