Junior Town Planner

Osborne Richards have an excellent opportunity for a Junior Planning Officer to join a Planning Consultancy in London for a permanent role.

Providing support to Senior Planners within the team, you will carry out site appraisals and liaise with clients and local authorities as appropriate.

In this role, you must be able to demonstrate an understanding and interest in planning law, recent planning policy changes, and design.

The pay rate for this role is circa £28,000 to £30,000 per annum depending on your experience, so this is a well-paid role and an excellent opportunity. Our client also offers a flexible working arrangement.
