  • the Planning team is small so the successful candidate will work on all projects and be exposed to the full project cycle, resulting in fantastic experience and potentially faster career progression
  • opportunities for progression, future leadership, client contact and developing a client following alongside excellent CPD and internal training;

  • Excellent knowledge of planning legislation and an interest in staying up to date with policy changes;
  • Experience working in and around the Bristol area would be valuable, but again not essential;
  • Willingness to attend networking and industry events and be involved in developing new workstreams for the team;
  • You should be commercially astute. able to present information and build strong relationships with potential new clients, including cross-selling within the wider business.
