Midlands planning restructure leads to recruitment push
A planning restructure at Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council has prompted the Midlands council to launch a recruitment drive.
Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council chief planning and development officer Nic Thomas told Planning: “The restructure focuses on how we deal with day-to-day work and major applications.”
The council, which lies on the border of the East and West Midlands, is looking to add a planning manager and principal planning officer to its development management team which currently numbers eight chartered planners.
Thomas said major ongoing projects included the Crescent town-centre regeneration, a leisure centre development and sustainable urban extensions.
