Associate Town Planning director

1 Days Old

Associate Director - Town Planner (Infrastructure Planning) Location: Bristol, United Kingdom
Are you a strategic thinker with a passion for infrastructure planning? We're working with a highly respected consultancy that's actively seeking an Associate Director to join their growing Infrastructure Planning team in Bristol.
This is a rare opportunity to take a leadership role within a well-established team that's shaping some of the most ambitious infrastructure and energy projects across the UK. If you're ready to work on nationally significant developments and mentor a team of talented planners, we'd love to hear from you.
Why This Role Stands Out: The team you'd be joining is known for delivering high-quality planning and consenting advice across sectors including energy, renewables, water, nuclear, net zero, rail, transport, and aviation. 2024 has been a year of major contract wins - with significant frameworks in place across the public and private sectors, they're now looking to build on that momentum in 2025.
Key Responsibilities: ·Provide line management, support, and mentorship to junior consultants ·Deliver complex, multi-disciplinary projects under the Planning Act 2008 and Town and Country Planning Act ·Offer expert technical planning advice to a wide range of infrastructure clients ·Lead on the preparation of major consent applications, including DCOs and applications under the Electricity Act and TWA Orders ·Collaborate closely across planning, environmental, and land teams ·Lead project management tasks, including budgeting and timelines ·Take part in business development, including preparing and delivering tender submissions
What We're Looking For: ·Proven experience delivering large-scale infrastructure projects through statutory planning processes ·Strong understanding of legislation such as the Planning Act 2008, Town and Country Planning Act, and ideally experience with other UK consent regimes (e.g., Transport and Works Act, Electricity Act, Planning (Wales) Act, Scottish Planning Acts) ·Comfortable managing both projects and people, with a collaborative and professional approach ·Excellent written and verbal communication skills ·Degree in Town Planning (or related discipline) and eligibility for or current RTPI membership
If you're an Associate town planner ready for that next step or an Associate Director ready to help shape the future of UK infrastructure while developing your career in a supportive and forward-thinking environment, we want to hear from you.
