Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council is looking for 2 enthusiastic professionals to join its busy Planning Development Team:

x1 as a maternity cover replacement for up to one year

x1 as a fixed term role for 2 years

You will be responsible for dealing with a caseload of interesting and complex planning applications and responding to pre-application enquiries in relation to proposed development queries.

You will need a minimum of two years Planning Development experience to include appeals experience, attendance at committee and experience of managing complex applications. You will need to be extremely organised, able to take responsibility for your own work and at the same time contribute to the overall team performance.

Within easy reach of London, Basingstoke is a fast paced, vibrant and modern town with many successful businesses, surrounded by picturesque villages and set in the stunning Hampshire countryside.

The area also includes Highclere Castle, the setting of TV’s Downton Abbey and Laverstoke Mill, home to Bombay Sapphire. There are activities for every interest, including an international concert hall, a regional shopping centre, indoor sky-diving centre and impressive sports and leisure facilities. Based at the Civic Offices in Basingstoke, near to the Top of Town, you would report directly to the Assistant Planning Manager.

As a Council we go beyond; we do things differently. Making a difference to the people we serve really makes a difference to us. If you share our values, are customer focused, and this is an opportunity you consider that you are well suited to then we would like to hear from you.

A full driving licence is essential for this role.

What benefits do we offer?
