Demonstrate strong project management skills by coordinating teams both internally and externally, identifying the correct delivery team, manage client risks and project programmes. Offer support to other members of the team and help to grow and develop their knowledge and understand of planning and the wider development offer.

Utilise a track record of marketing, business development and brand awareness to demonstrably grow our development offer within Hereford. Create a strong network of developers, landowners, promoters and agents within the area and begin to increase the baseline of planning and development instructions. Utilise existing connections and relationships to increase the level and quality of our instructions within Hereford - both for the planning and development function and, where possible, the wider service offers within the business. Gain an intimate understanding of our planning offer, the opportunities and weaknesses that we currently face and implement a plan to diversify. This should include both the types of development work we do as well as the markets we operate in.
