Associate Town Planner

If there’s ever been a time to be an Associate Planner, it is most definitely now.

Basically, you’re kind of a big deal. And you deserve to feel that way.

What you don’t deserve is working day after day in a high stress, high targeted and low paid role that is frankly making you forget why you dedicated the last 5 years to the development profession.

This multidisciplinary consultancy, dedicated to sustainable development and placemaking, is looking for a chartered Senior or Principal Planner with strong development management skills and a pragmatic, energetic attitude to embrace this brilliant opportunity.

With a combined project value of over £12 billion, this is truly a role to get your teeth stuck into, spanning both major commercial developments, and impressive residential projects. Major by name, and mega by nature, their pipeline of work is truly making a different to communities in the Northwest, and also on a national scale.

However, such a high calibre of projects has not given way to a volatile working environment. With a a reluctancy to place too much pressure on individual consultants, they instead look to the wider team for annual targets and have consistent success with this approach.

If you are a chartered Associate Planner, looking for that next step to progress in a well-structured environment with a healthy approach to targets and billings, this is the role for you.

Here you’ll find yourself leading project teams, as well as parts of major projects, managing client relations and business development, and working on varied applications, as well as the option to home in on more specialised areas.

Beyond the job itself, the idyllic location of their office offers much more than an office setting. Set in the beautiful Yorkshire Countryside, you’re set for lunchtime runs, a walk and talk with your teammates, or a sit down by the picturesque reservoir adjacent to the office. The team are incredibly supportive of the reality of life, with flexible working hours, a real support network in times of personal crisis, and twice annual bonus, and generous annual leave.

To put it simply, to them you are an individual and not simply a biller.
