Job Introduction

We’re recruiting a Principal Planning Officer to join our Development Management service at Milton Keynes City Council. This is a rewarding role where your professional judgement will help shape how Milton Keynes continues to grow as a modern, inclusive city.

You’ll be part of a service that plays a key role in balancing growth with high quality places. Through the assessment of detailed development proposals, your work will help secure affordable housing, infrastructure and wider community benefits.

Your decisions will consider social, environmental and economic impacts, supporting sustainable development across the city. You’ll work on significant planning applications that directly support the delivery of Plan: MK and the emerging Milton Keynes City Plan. Alongside experienced colleagues, you’ll help ensure development proposals contribute positively to Milton Keynes as a great place to live and work.

Join our team with one of two exciting full-time opportunities, one permanent position and one 1-year fixed-term contract.

This role includes a £4,000 per annum market supplement until March 2027 (whereupon it is subject to review)

This role may be suitable for home working, following an assessment. Home‑based roles require a minimum of one day per week working from the office or site.

Interviews for this role will be held on 15th July 2026

At Milton Keynes City Council, we aim to make a difference every day. We’re dedicated, respectful and collaborative. We act as one council, and we work hard to create cleaner, safer and healthier communities while tackling inequalities and supporting people to thrive.

A degree in planning or a related subject and a postgraduate Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) accredited planning qualification.
