LOCATION - MANCHESTER / NORTH WEST
We have an exciting opportunity to join our vibrant and dedicated planning team, based in our Manchester office, with the opportunity to work flexibly with our agile working approach. Other office locations will also be considered.
We would like to hear from people with vision who are passionate about being a planner and who would relish being able to shape their own strategic vision, help develop their own team, service clients, and deliver project excellence.
You will be joining a market-leading, multi-national company at a hugely exciting time following our recent rebrand as part of the Tetra Tech Planning family and continued growth. You will have opportunities to work with key clients, across our multidisciplinary teams and contribute to the strategic direction of our planning business.
Your role:
We work on behalf of both public and private sector clients, and we are proud of our diverse range of projects. We provide advice across the entire spectrum of development schemes - from initial feasibility studies and site visits, through to the submission of large-scale planning applications, other consents and appeals. We have strong local and national networks and a collaborative team culture. You will be working closely with colleagues in the wider planning team and senior leaders in the business to capitalise on our market share and help grow our business.
Tetra Tech is a multidisciplinary organisation, and you will have the opportunity to work collaboratively with multi-skilled teams on large scale and significant projects.
With a growing pipeline of work and the strong backing of our parent company to grow, there couldn't be a more exciting time to join us.
Qualifications and Responsibilities:
We are looking for a RTPI accredited town planner with proven experience in a similar role or someone looking to step up to Associate Director/Director.
You will be capable of:
- developing, delivering and owning a strategic vision to ensure profitable performance for your business;
- leading and inspiring team members to work coherently as a team, leveraging expertise and resources from the wider planning business;
- owning a portfolio and pipeline of fee-earning work and client relationships, leading by example and structuring delivery of the wider portfolio and pipeline of fee-earning work across your team;
- leading and co-ordinating business development and client relationship management, promoting our planning division and the wider business at every opportunity, undertaking initiatives to actively raise our profile;
- acting as a role model for professional standards and behaviours within the business, seeking ways to work collaboratively with other business units in the best interest of the business;
- representing the business through wider sector initiatives, showing strong leadership and technical expertise; and
- ensuring compliance with commercial and operational governance processes, and risks are minimised.
In return we offer a competitive salary, contributory pension, car allowance, health cover and a range of flexible benefits including discounted childcare and retail vouchers, travel insurance and variable holiday (renewable annually). We have adopted a more agile way of working that will allow us to continue servicing our clients but also give our employees greater flexibility and the ability to manage their work/life balance better.
As part of the agile working approach, we encourage working how and when suits employees to achieve a balance that works for them. We recognise that each individual's needs and wants will be different. We trust our employees to focus on outputs and not inputs.
Tetra Tech is an equal opportunities employer and positively encourages applications from suitably qualified and eligible candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, transgender status, religion or belief, marital status, or pregnancy and maternity.
