Or maybe you have valuable transferable skills from a role in client relations, political research, public affairs, or the property sector.

We want to hear from you if you think you can demonstrate these to a high standard:
• Excellent communication skills – you can actively listen and confidently and clearly communicate with colleagues, clients, politicians, and community stakeholders.
• Collaborative spirit – you’ll enjoy working closely with colleagues, across the business and as part of our clients’ project teams.
• Analytical thinking and problem solving – you feel confident undertaking research, interpreting information to make informed judgements.
• Project management – you can manage your time effectively, are organised and demonstrate an eye for detail.
• Enthusiasm and adaptability – you enjoy taking on new challenges and getting to grips with new projects and can adapt to changing client needs and project priorities.

You should have some knowledge of or an interest in politics, the built environment, and/or the community and social impact issues that interact with the planning process.
