Opportunities to enhance your planning career in Tewkesbury Borough
Tewkesbury Borough is experiencing significant growth. We have one of the strongest economies in the UK, and an ambitious Garden Communities programme.

We also have significant environmental assets, such as the Cotswolds AONB, a rich built heritage and a strategic location on the M5 and M50 corridors, in north Gloucestershire.


Our plans to support this growth are ambitious, and we have a strong commitment to place-making and creating sustainable, well-designed and vibrant communities.


We therefore have an exciting range of projects for planners to use and develop their professional skills at the principal planner level.

These opportunities have arisen through restructuring and recent internal promotion.

Alongside the professional opportunity, we can also offer a comprehensive range of benefits:

  • Blend of office and home working.
  • Flexitime scheme that means you can accrue up to an extra day off each month.
  • Great technology to support working in flexible locations.
  • Fleet of pool cars so you don't need to use your own car for work.
  • Access to the Local Government Pension Scheme.
  • Paid annual professional membership.
  • Financial support for relocation to our area.
  • Leave entitlement starting at 25 days plus bank holidays, rising to 31 days.
  • Training and professional apprenticeships.
  • Optin benefits, such as salary sacrifice cars, bikes and reduced gym membership.
  • Free onsite parking.


This is a brilliant time to join us as we embark on implementing a range of improvements following a planning review, investing further in both staff resources and training, together with ways of working differently to deliver quality outcomes.

We're open to part-time working, so if our hours don't suit you, feel free to discuss alternatives with us. To arrange an informal discussion, please phone James Lloyd, Development Management Team Manager, on
