Planning Manager
Warwickshire
Up to £70,000 plus car allowance and package
I'm working with one of the UK's leading strategic land promoters on a Planning Manager hire. They take greenfield sites through promotion and planning to deliver consented land for new homes, and the pipeline is strong enough that they need another pair of hands running sites.
The Role:
- Take ownership of a portfolio of strategic sites from first appraisal through to residential consent
- Prepare and manage outline and detailed planning applications
- Appoint and coordinate consultant teams and keep submissions on time and on budget
- Promote sites through the Local Plan process and track emerging policy
- Run appeals, hearings and inquiries alongside appointed advisors
- Lead consultation with councils, councillors and local communities
- Negotiate conditions and Section 106 to protect viability
