Planning Officer - Seaford, United Kingdom - Seaford Town Council

Description

Working for Seaford Town Council, your days will never be dull and you will get to know the town of Seaford better than you thought possible

We are seeking a Planning Officer to manage the delivery of the planning function within the Town Council, predominantly through the work of the Planning & Highways Committee, support to others with planning matters and specific delegated project work.

This might be the job for you if:

• You have prior experience, knowledge and a good understanding of the Planning system in the public sector at an officer level, preferably with a Planning qualification.
• Maybe you go one step further than the above and would say you are actively passionate about local planning matters and find it fascinating to assess how the planning system translates to and impacts 'on the ground'
• You have confidence in dealing with Councillors, members of the public and other local authorities both over the phone and facetoface. You have that expert knowledge coupled with the ability to tailor your communications to the audience and make it accessible.
• You don't get flustered easily and are patient, levelheaded and cool under pressure
• You are motivated by knowing that you are a part of this organisation which operates purely for the town of Seaford and helping to maintain, improve and support its future.

We are offering you a warm team to join in central Seaford, reassurance of a secure job with a public sector employer that understands and practises its duty of care to its staff, flexibility with your working hours and/or to work remotely at times (although you will need to be within a commutable distance of Seaford), a competitive public sector salary and pension and importantly, a role that you can take ownership of and thrive in

Interviews will be held
Tuesday 2nd April (afternoon).
