Job Description

Overview

A fantastic opportunity has become available with a highly respected Yorkshire-based planning consultancy delivering residential-led regeneration and brownfield redevelopment schemes across South Yorkshire and the wider region.

With a team of experienced chartered planners and a strong pipeline of work from regional housebuilders and land promoters, this firm has developed a reputation for providing commercially grounded, pragmatic planning advice. Their continued growth has been driven by repeat instructions and long-standing client relationships rather than aggressive expansion - creating a stable and supportive working environment.

The Role

This is a hands-on consultancy role offering exposure to meaningful residential and regeneration projects.

You will:

  • Prepare and submit full and outline planning applications
  • Draft Planning Statements and supporting documentation
  • Assist in the promotion of sites through emerging Local Plans
  • Support appeal submissions and enforcement matters
  • Liaise directly with planning officers and consultees
  • Attend client meetings and site visits
  • Contribute to planning strategy discussions

You will gain exposure to both the technical and commercial aspects of consultancy planning.

About You
  • MRTPI qualified or actively working towards chartership
  • Experience in consultancy, local authority or developer environment
  • Strong written and analytical ability
  • A commercially aware and proactive mindset
  • Ambition to build a long-term career in planning consultancy

This is an excellent opportunity for a planner looking to strengthen their experience within a respected regional team.

All applications will be dealt with in the strictest confidence.
