Job Description & How to Apply Below

I'm currently working closely with a Nottinghamshire Council who are looking for an experienced Development Management Planning Officer to provide additional capacity within their Planning Service.

This is a delivery-focused role for someone who can hit the ground running, take ownership of a caseload and determine applications with minimal supervision.

Role details
  • Planning Officer - Development Management
  • 37 hours per week, Monday-Friday
  • Initial 3-month contract, with potential for extension
  • Hybrid working, with office attendance required for site visits, meetings and other work as necessary
  • Start: ASAP
  • Rate:
    Negotiable - please let me know your expectations
  • IR35:
    Inside
The caseload is likely to include
  • Householder and minor applications
  • Rural and agricultural applications
  • Small/medium-scale residential schemes, generally up to 30 dwellings
  • Pre-application enquiries
  • Appeals and associated casework
  • Committee reports where required
They are looking for someone with
  • Recent UK Local Authority Development Management experience
  • Strong application determination experience
  • The ability to manage a busy caseload independently
  • Excellent report-writing and decision-making skills
  • Experience using Uniform / IDOX - essential
  • A delivery-focused approach and the ability to work with minimal supervision

This is not a management or policy role - they specifically want an experienced Development Management planner who enjoys being hands-on and progressing applications through to determination.

Thanks so much, I look forward to hearing from you.

Steve
