In return you would be joining a friendly team in a progressive authority that is passionate about its people and would invest in your development. The County Council is supportive of flexible and remote working arrangements.

**Requirements**:

- Relevant degree and RTPI accredited postgraduate qualification or equivalent experience.
- Significant experience in development management or local plan making; county council planning matters; monitoring development; handling complex planning maters with a high public profile in a politically sensitive environment; enforcement; presenting at planning committee; and participating in appeals and/or examinations.
- Experience in supervising members of a team, providing constructive support, mentoring and monitoring performance; deputising for senior colleagues; and reviewing and authorising reports.
- Excellent knowledge of planning legislation, policy and good practice; minerals and waste operations; local government procedures and governance; and regional and national strategic planning issues.
- Excellent skills in written and verbal communication; numeracy and analysis; an ability to develop and maintain strong working relationships; organisations and ability to manage competing demands and deadlines; and driving service improvements.
