Senior Planner

Senior Planner

Green Planning Studio is a planning-led, multi-disciplinary consultancy based at Upton Magna near Shrewsbury, working on cases across England and Wales. We specialise in winning planning consents in areas of development constraint, particularly in rural areas.

We have an expanding workload and are looking to appoint a senior planner to take responsibility for case work from initial enquiry to determination, including appeals. Whilst GPS work in a wide range of areas, specialist knowledge in material change of use of land cases and/or mobile home site cases and/or certificates of lawfulness cases would be an advantage. 

GPS has a unique approach to land use planning and the interrogation of planning histories, and this role will provide the successful applicant with extraordinary insight into the opportunities presented by this approach. Operating at the cutting edge of planning GPS’s approach has resulted in a number of leading judgements such as ‘Winchester City Council’, ‘Reed & Bracknell’, ‘AZ’, and ‘Turner’.

The role will include supervision of junior staff. 

Excellent pension benefits.
