Planning - Shaping Tomorrow's Communities Today
Our Development Management Service is crucial in shaping Wiltshire’s future by determining planning applications for new developments.
While some decisions involve subjective judgment, we adhere strictly to legal and procedural guidelines to ensure compliance with legislation and policy. We support the council’s business plan by fostering new development, driving economic growth, and promoting environmental protection and sustainability.
As a Senior Planning Officer, you will lead different planning projects, working closely with the community and stakeholders to create important new developments. You will assess various planning applications, enquiries, and appeals to help shape Wiltshire's overall vision for the future.
While you won't manage others directly, you will mentor junior planning officers, ensuring their work follows council rules and national standards.
We are looking for a qualified planner (degree or equivalent experience) with strong IT and GIS skills, expert knowledge of planning legislation, experience of handling complex cases, appeals, and negotiations. You will need great communication, organisation, and decision-making skills, plus a good understanding of local government processes.
This role will require successful candidates to hold a full UK driving licence and have access to their own motor vehicle to undertake the full duties of this position.
