Job Description

Job title: Senior Town Planner

Location: Leeds

Salary: Competitive

Are you an experienced Town Planner ready to step into a senior role with a respected consultancy that's growing rapidly across the UK?

We're working exclusively with a nationally recognised planning consultancy that's looking to strengthen its Leeds office with a Senior Town Planner. With a diverse project portfolio spanning residential, commercial, mixed-use and regeneration schemes, this is a brilliant opportunity to take the lead on high-profile developments and mentor junior colleagues as part of a dynamic and collaborative team.



What's on offer:

  • A clear path for career development with support from Directors who are invested in your progression

  • Autonomy to manage your own projects from inception to completion

  • Flexible hybrid working and a modern central Leeds office

  • A competitive salary, annual bonus, and benefits package



What you'll bring:

  • MRTPI qualification (or working towards it with strong experience)

  • Proven experience in a private consultancy or similar planning environment

  • Excellent knowledge of the UK planning system, especially in Yorkshire and the North

  • Confident communication skills and the ability to build strong client relationships

  • A proactive and commercially minded approach to planning

Whether you're already operating at a Senior Planner level or a strong Planner looking for a step up, this is a chance to make a real impact in a business that values its people, rewards initiative, and offers real scope for progression.
