We are seeking an experienced Planning Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of complex planning and development projects from inception through to completion. This role will involve coordinating multidisciplinary teams, managing project programmes and ensuring that all planning activities are delivered efficiently, accurately and in line with relevant legislation, policies and professional standards.
You will be responsible for preparing, submitting and managing planning applications, planning appeals and associated technical documentation. Working closely with consultants, local authorities, landowners, contractors and internal stakeholders, you will identify project requirements, assess risks and provide clear, commercially aware advice. The role will also include monitoring project progress, managing budgets, commissioning specialist reports and ensuring that key milestones, quality standards and regulatory obligations are met. You will maintain accurate records, prepare reports and present updates to senior stakeholders, highlighting issues and recommending practical solutions where necessary.

You will be highly organised, analytical and confident in making informed decisions. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are required, together with the ability to build effective relationships and influence stakeholders at all levels. A relevant qualification in planning, project management, development or a related discipline would be advantageous. In return, this opportunity offers the chance to contribute to varied and significant projects while developing your professional expertise within a collaborative and forward-looking environment.
