Senior / Associate Town Planner (MRTPI) — Major London ProjectsJoin a top-tier, independent planning consultancy working on some of the most significant and complex schemes in and around London — from city-shaping regeneration and tall buildings to large, infrastructure-led projects that knit places together. With a deep pipeline and a long-standing client base, you’ll spend your time doing what you do best: planning strategy, applications, and negotiations — not chasing work.

Why this role

Do career-defining work:

High-profile, complex London schemes, including infrastructure-linked regeneration and masterplans.

Minimal business development; the project pipeline and client relationships are already in place.

Serious influence:

Work directly with leading project teams, GLA/boroughs, heritage bodies, and key stakeholders.

Support and scale:

Join a sizeable London-centric team with the resources to deliver at pace.

What you’ll do

Lead/manage major applications (pre-app to decision), conditions/obligations, and reserved matters.

Shape planning strategy, policy positioning, and stakeholder engagement (GLA stages, borough committees, statutory consultees).

Coordinate EIA scoping/screening, technical inputs, and design development.

Prepare robust submissions: Planning Statements, SoCGs, appeal material (written reps/hearings/inquiries).

Advise on CIL/S106 heads of terms, viability interfaces, and delivery strategies.

Mentor juniors; oversee quality, programme, and risk on multiple live projects.

What you’ll bring

MRTPI (or close to achieving)

and

4–10+ years’

experience (Senior through Associate).

Strong London planning experience across complex urban sites (mixed-use, tall buildings, regeneration; infrastructure interfaces a plus).

Proven track record negotiating with LPAs, GLA, Historic England and other statutory bodies.

Excellent written work (concise, evidence-led) and confident presentation at public forums.

Commercially aware, delivery-focused, and calm under pressure.

Exposure to flagship London projects and blue-chip clients.

Collaborative culture with best-in-class peers and mentors.
