Macclesfield consultancy Emery Planning has appointed Gareth Salthouse as a consultant.

Salthouse joins the firm from Cheshire-based development firm Emerson Group, where he had worked as a planner since last year.

In his previous role, he provided strategic advice to the group board and promoted a number of sites for redevelopment through the planning system.
