Job Details

We are currently working with a local authority based in the East Midlands, who are looking to take on Principal Officer for an initial 6-month contract, but this is highly likely to roll on for a considerable length of time. The view would be to join the authority and work on a range of applications, up to approx. 200 dwellings. This role will involve:

  • The processing of major planning applications, including speculative residential applications in the countryside.
  • Undertaking consultations in accordance with statutory and local requirements.
  • Carrying out site inspections.
  • Negotiating and communicating with applicants, agents and consultees.
  • Advising members of the public, parish councils and District Councillors.
  • Assessing proposals in line with national and local planning policies and guidance and all other material considerations (including representations made by consultees).
  • Preparing reports and making recommendations on delegated planning applications and to Planning Committees.
  • Issuing decision notices in accordance with the statutory and other procedures of the department including incorporating conditions and where necessary reasons for refusal.
  • Providing written and verbal advice on development management to members of the public, developers, Parish Councils, District Councillors and others.

The rate for this role has been set between £35 and £45p/h, though there may be scope for more for an exceptional candidate. There is some flexibility with home working, and this can be negotiated once successfully through the interview stage.

If you would like more information on this position, or others we are working on in the East Midlands area, please get in touch with Alex on 020 3795 4835, alex@park-avenue.co.uk.
