I partner with aspirational property companies looking to find and attract the best talent.
I am working with one of the leading privately owned strategic land promoters and house builders that is looking to strengthen the team with a planning manager to be based out of their south midlands office.
You will report directly into the group strategic planning director but work autonomously on managing existing planning applications through outlined and detailed consents. You will oversee a number of key planning applications on projects but work closely with the land buyers.
You will be an experienced town planner who has managed and run teams of planners previously and be used to operating at senior management level to provide direction and leadership to the wider business.
Ideally, you will have worked for either a house builder/residential developer or a strategic land promotion company where you would have played a key and important role in managing complex town planning applications.
The client is a mature and grown-up environment with a low head count where everyone just gets on with their job.
If you are looking for a role with a progressive and flexible business with a passionate and success-focused team then this is the dream job for you.
