Given the complexity of the work, the postholder is being appointed at the Senior Planning Officer level. The intention is for the postholder to work predominantly from home; however, attendance at our offices or sites within Warwick District is required as needed. Any travel costs from home to the office will be met by the successful candidate. Hybrid and office working is also available.
