Swale Borough lies in an attractive and diverse part of Kent involving urban, rural and coastal areas. The Council is embarking on a review of its Local Plan and we are seeking skilled and talented planners and urban designer/landscape specialists to support the work on the unique range of planning challenges and opportunities posed by the many significant major developments and garden community proposals likely to come forward.

The successful candidate would be expected to have qualified in planning, urban design, architecture and/or landscape design and have significant demonstrable experience of working on major projects and securing quality sustainable design outcomes.
