Job description

Role: Chartered Town Planner

Location: South Manchester

Salary: Up to 45k DOE plus bonus

A new opportunity with a longstanding client has arose, due to continued workload and ongoing growth within the business. You’d be working for an independent consultancy based in Greater Manchester who have an impressive portfolio and story with regards to the growth and founding of the business. You’d learn from their knowledgable and well respected leaders within the industry.

They’re a busy and close-knit team that work closely with a range of clients, including national house builders and local councils working on a range of projects inclusive of residential, both small and large developments, town centre regeneration, mixed-use, sports facilities such a s padel courts and football clubs, education, global high-street chains and more.

The team are very much front of centre of the business. You’d be introduced from clients from day one, attend site visits and get stuck in with networking events as a team - not just the leaders. Think, golf days, Chester races, networking meet ups, award evenings etc.

You’re very much so in control of your progression, if you’re working at a more senior level, there’s no waiting around for a promotion window or for it to be passed onto a Senior Director. If you put the work in, you will reap the rewards.
