Tired of firefighting? Want space to use your professional judgement?
Melton Borough Council is doing Development Management differently: focusing effort where it matters, backing planners to make decisions, and cutting unnecessary friction from the system.
We’re looking for experienced planners to lead on major and complex applications, working directly with agents, consultees and Members to deliver high-quality, proportionate outcomes.
This role is for you if you:
have experience determining or submitting major / complex applications
want autonomy, trust and clarity about priorities
enjoy problem-solving and collaboration, not box-ticking
care about delivering sustainable growth, not just processing cases
RTPI qualification welcomed, but experience matters more. Applicants from local authority or private practice are encouraged.
Melton is an ambitious rural authority — the Rural Capital of Food — with significant growth opportunities and a genuine commitment to improving how planning works.
You can find out more about these roles by viewing the full job description and person specification on our website.
We guarantee an interview to anyone who is a reservist, veteran or has a disability and meets the criteria for the role
Why join us ?
We offer flexible and hybrid working, built on trust. Our standard week is 37 hours, and we simply ask that service needs are met.
Balance matters. We encourage you to switch off and recharge, with up to 30 days’ annual leave, bank holidays, and three extra days at Christmas. You can also buy additional leave if you choose.
We Care is one of our core values. As a Healthy Workplace, we support your wellbeing through a range of activities and a confidential Employee Assistance Programme.
We help you plan for the future with the excellent Local Government Pension Scheme, financial planning workshops, career development opportunities.
And because family comes first, we have a strong set of family friendly policies.
