3 weeks ago
Are you equipped with a relevant degree or equivalent qualification acknowledged by the RTPI or RICS? Do you possess a minimum of two years' experience in leading a project team, preferably within the minerals and waste sector, along with a passion for environmental planning? As a Planning & Development Manager, you will enhance our Estates division, which oversees a remarkably extensive and varied property portfolio, encompassing industrial, agricultural, residential, leisure, and commercial properties.
This position offers a permanent contract with a competitive starting salary of £42,500 and a range of attractive benefits, including:
- Company vehicle
- Performance-based bonuses
- Pension plan (you contribute 5% of your salary, matched by Grundon) with life insurance coverage
- 30 days of annual leave (including 8 public holidays), increasing with tenure, plus the option to purchase up to 5 additional days of leave
Grundon's ongoing success is significantly attributed to its innovative and proactive approach, particularly in identifying creative avenues for future growth.
Our Estates department plays a crucial role in facilitating this by ensuring that the evolving needs of our business are addressed through the planning framework.
In this dynamic role, you will engage in a variety of stimulating planning and development initiatives, including (but not limited to) minerals and waste planning, renewable energy projects, sustainability efforts, and commercial development.
Your responsibilities will include securing planning approvals and managing preliminary development activities to support operational teams and enhance the value derived from the estate.
- Collaborating closely with operational colleagues, you will frequently visit sites to explore and identify development opportunities aimed at improving efficiency and productivity.
- Partnering with Estates colleagues and members of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), you will pinpoint development prospects within the non-operational commercial estate.
- Working alongside the Estates Director, Head of Estates, and other team members, you will ensure the necessary legal agreements and statutory approvals are obtained to facilitate development.
- In conjunction with the Projects, Engineering & Design (PED) team, you will create initial scheme designs, commission studies, and lead both internal and external teams in managing planning applications, Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), Appeals, Local Development Framework submissions, and other land-use regulatory tasks in support of the business.
- A valid UK driving license is essential, as regular site visits and attendance at public engagement events will be required.
- A relevant degree and/or qualification recognized by the RTPI or RICS (or progress towards such qualification).
- A minimum of two years' experience in managing a project team, ideally within the minerals and waste sector. Experience in land-related matters is advantageous.
- Strong confidence and motivation, coupled with effective communication and exceptional organizational, negotiation, and analytical skills.
