Coventry, United Kingdom Coventry City Council Full time

About the team we are recruiting to
We value diverse perspectives and experiences and are striving to create a workplace culture that is inclusive, is accepting of all and is free from discrimination and bias.

The City of Coventry is an exciting place to be. One of the fastest growing cities in Europe with a young, dynamic population, investment and change is all around. Our Planning Service leads the transformation of the city - there’s no better place to work as a town planner. There really is a lot happening within the city. Not only do we have two major and top performing universities and the associated development with the universities but we have the City Centre South redevelopment, two Sustainable Urban Extensions and other significant housing sites and regeneration areas. Add to the mix our historic City centre, famous for its historic buildings and post-war redevelopment, Coventry presents the ultimate environment for the planning professional.

We have vacancies at Town Planner and Senior Town Planner levels. We’re recruiting to our Development Management team which supports the growth of the city and manages development from inception to delivery. We’re a friendly and forward thinking team and we support each other. We have a can-do approach and are always striving to improve our service. We recognise the importance of developing a strong, robust and resilient team through learning and development.

Alongside Development Management is the Planning Policy and Environment team which encompasses a number of individual but related specialisms all focussed on delivering a city for those wishing to live and work here. Those specialisms include Strategic Planning, Ecology, Trees and Landscape, Urban Design, Conservation, Archaeology and Environmental Protection.

What is the job role?
As a Town Planner you will provide an efficient and effective customer focussed professional planning service to support the sustainable growth and regeneration of the City.

Who are we looking for?
**Do you hold a degree or equivalent in Town Planning or a related discipline or have experience of working in a Planning Team? Do you have a knowledge of town planning practice and processes and looking to start your professional career in Development Management? If so we’d love to hear from you for the Town Planner Post.**

**A full UK driving licence is required to carry out site visits around the city.**

Interview dates early in the New Year.
