The role
Are you passionate about shaping sustainable development in Wales? Do you want to help safeguard our natural resources while playing a key role in planning the places where we live, work, and thrive?
We're looking for two Development Planning Advisors to join our expert team within Natural Resources Wales. This is an exciting opportunity for individuals with experience in environmental assessment or the town and country planning system who are ready to make a real impact.
You'll provide authoritative environmental advice to Local Planning Authorities and other stakeholders, helping to shape everything from housing and infrastructure to energy and agriculture. Your work will influence both strategic development plans and individual planning applications, covering topics such as flood risk, biodiversity, water quality, landscape, and more.
You'll engage with a wide variety of development proposals-from national infrastructure projects to local regeneration schemes-and work alongside technical specialists across NRW to deliver evidence-based, timely, and effective input.
This is a varied and rewarding role, ideal for someone who enjoys collaboration, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is confident communicating complex issues to a range of audiences. Your advice will help ensure that development in Wales is sustainable, resilient, and aligned with our environmental responsibilities.
We offer a supportive, flexible working environment including hybrid options, opportunities for professional growth, and the chance to influence real-world outcomes that benefit people and nature alike.
As an organisation we support flexible working. You will be contracted to the NRW office at the above location and a suitable hybrid working pattern will be agreed on appointment. Any regular face to face meetings or training will be planned in advance.
To make an informal enquiry about this role, please contact Jonathan Scott via Jonathan.Scott@naturalresourceswales.gov.uk
Interviews will take place via Microsoft Teams.
Successful applicants will be subject to a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Service Check (DBS) check. Appointments are normally made within 4 to 8 weeks of the closing date.
This is a Fixed Term Appointment (FTA) for a period of 100 weeks with the possibility of being made permanent.
