    · Assist in public consultations with preparatory materials and represent RPS at public events in support of client proposals

    · Attend and monitor committee and other hearings

    Who we're looking for

    · A fully qualified RTPI chartered town planner

    · Ability to work under tight deadlines in a corporate environment

    · A passion for planning, development and environmental issues

    · A good working knowledge of planning policy

    · A keen eye on emerging planning policy

    · A strategic thinker and someone who can readily problem solve

    · A market awareness and a good understanding of local planning issues

    What's in it for you?

    We're an accredited training provider – from entry level to master's degree level professional qualifications in leadership & management and executive coaching & mentoring, we support learning and development for everyone.

    A personal development plan and a transparent career pathway puts you in the driving seat of your career and you'll be supported as far as you want to go.

    We encourage and value different ideas, perspectives, and styles of thinking. We need a mix of experiences and skills to develop the most innovative ideas. We respect one another and recognise the potential and contribution of everyone. You'll be joining a diverse community and a company that puts its people first and prioritises their wellbeing.

    We understand the need to work flexibly, with agile offices and hybrid working offered as standard, we're happy to talk about flexible working. This is a workplace that works for you.

    A career here is far from ordinary. Here you're not a number, you're part of the solution.

    What happens next?
