We currently have a statutory responsibility to protect playing field sites and also to engage with the local plan process, to deliver a wider ambition to help shape environments, protect, provide and enhance facilities to make it easier to be active in their everyday lives. We're now evolving how we do this - moving towards a more strategic, plan led and digitally enabled planning service that works more proactively with local authorities and partners. The roles We are looking for Planners who are Chartered Members of the RTPI, with post chartership experience gained in a local authority, consultancy, government body, statutory consultee or similar organisation. Planning Manager (Policy & Tools) You will use policy development experience skills You will support the development of planning tools & guidance (including Active Design), standing advice, and service standards working with partners such as ECB, RFU, TCPA and others Support the development of new digitally enabled tools and methodologies to support the delivery of the work such as Active Places Provide expert advice to colleagues delivering the above locally as well as nationally to other agencies and partners Planning Manager (Local Delivery) You will use a blend of development management skills and policy development on a day-to-day basis, coupled with relationship management to: Support Sport England's statutory role in protecting playing fields through the planning system, working with partners such as the ECB, RFU, LTA and other national governing bodies of sport Work proactively with local authorities through our new remit on local plans, influencing policy and supporting the evidence base through playing pitch strategies and strategic site engagement Support our wider place based and capital investment work by providing planning advice and influencing policy that supports active environments and everyday physical activity, not just formal sport These roles offer a rare opportunity to build a broad, high impact planning career, whether through hands on local delivery, working directly with local authorities on applications, plans and place-based outcomes, or through national policy, tools and guidance, shaping how the planning system supports sport and physical activity across England. In both roles, you'll gain end to end experience of the planning system, from local decision making to national policy and standing advice, while working as a statutory consultee with real influence. You'll be exposed to government, local authorities, National Governing Bodies and major partners, and develop skills in strategic planning, evidence led decision making, active environments and data enabled planning.
