  • preparing planning applications, including drafting sections of, or whole, Planning Statements and Statements of Community Involvement,
  • preparing representations to local plan and other policy consultations on behalf of clients,
  • researching, preparing and submitting appeals against refusals of planning consent,
  • researching and assisting in the preparation of proofs of evidence for senior staff standing as expert witness at planning inquiries,
  • generally meeting targets for fee earning from the delivery of project work,
  • helping to write tender proposals to win new project work,
  • helping with business generation ideas and client research,
  • working either as part of a team or independently as required.

  • RTPI-accredited planning degree,
  • RTPI chartered membership,
