Principal Planner

London

Salary - Competitive + Benefits

An opportunity has arisen for a Principal Planner to join an innovative public and private partnership in London. My client has successfully provided a range of property and development services for various local authorities and private organisations. The particular London Borough has benefited immensely from the joint venture - internal development and advisory services have improved and a substantial saving has been made and will continue to do so over the coming years.

Joining my client will give you the opportunity to take the lead on a number of major planning applications for developments across London; you will be expected to work at times with minimal supervision and provide support for junior members in the team.

Key Responsibilities Include:

• Management of complex major planning applications.
• Lead S106 negotiations.
• Managing conflict between various stakeholders.
• Develop and maintain relationships with government departments and regional bodies.
• Organising and attending meetings with council committees.
• Using technical knowledge of strategic planning and development management.

Ideally, the appointed Principal Planner will be a chartered member of the RTPI however this is not essential. It is important to my client that all candidates have worked within either a consultancy or a local authority and must have experience handling major planning applications.

Please apply online with your most recent CV; if you would like to discuss the opportunity in more detail then please contact Joshua Palmer on 0161 457 0109.
