Salary: Up to £46,000

Contract: Full-time, permanent

Working hours: 37.5 per week - 9am-5.30pm, Mon-Fri

Do you hold a relevant degree or other qualification recognised by the RTPI or RICS (or are working towards), have at least two years' experience in managing a project team, ideally within the minerals and waste industry, and an interest in environmental planning? As Planning & Development Manager you will strengthen our Estates team, which manages our large and diverse property portfolio, including industrial, agricultural, residential, leisure and commercial assets.


What you'll be doing as Planning & Development Manager

In this challenging role you will be involved in a variety of exciting planning and development projects, ranging from (but not limited to) minerals and waste planning, renewable energy, sustainability and commercial development projects. You will deliver planning consents and manage early-stage development activities to both support operational teams and create increasing value from the estate.

- Regularly visit sites to discuss and identify development opportunities to improve efficiency and productivity.
- Identify development opportunities in the non-operational commercial estate.
- Secure the legal agreements and statutory consents necessary to enable development.
- Develop early-stage scheme designs, commission investigations and lead internal and external teams to undertake and manage planning applications, EIAs, Appeals, Local Development Framework submissions and other land-use regulatory activities.

You will need a full UK driving licence as regular visits to sites and attendance at public liaison events will be required.
