Partner - Planning and Development Consultancy Location: Northamptonshire Confidential appointment Immediate Partner / Equity opportunity for the right individual, or a clearly defined pathway Joshua Robert are supporting a confidential appointment for an established consultancy looking to strengthen its planning and development offer across the Midlands. This is aimed at an experienced MRTPI-qualified planning professional who is either already operating at Partner level, or is close to that point but does not yet have the title, influence or reward to match. The opportunity is straightforward: lead, grow and shape a regional planning consultancy offer with genuine autonomy and a serious commercial platform behind you. For the right person, this can include immediate Partner status and equity participation. If that is not appropriate from day one, there is scope to agree a clear and structured pathway to achieve it. The Opportunity This is not a standard Planning Manager role. The client is looking for someone who can take ownership of a planning and development consultancy function, develop client relationships, win instructions and build a stronger regional presence. The role will suit someone who enjoys the commercial side of consultancy as much as the technical side: advising clients, identifying opportunities, building relationships and creating long-term value. There is already a platform to build from, but the successful candidate will have the freedom to shape the direction of the offer and grow it around their own market presence. Why It Is Worth Considering This opportunity is likely to appeal if you are asking yourself: Am I already operating at this level without the title or reward? Is my route to equity clear, or just talked about? Am I building value for someone else without a meaningful stake? Could I grow something faster with the right backing? Do I want more control over the clients, work and team I build? The client can offer: Immediate Partner status for the right person Potential equity participation A clear route to partnership if not immediate Senior-level package shaped around experience and commercial value Autonomy to lead and grow a regional planning function Existing relationships and workstreams to build from Scope to recruit and develop a team around you Direct influence in the direction of the business The Role The successful candidate will lead the growth of a planning and development consultancy offer across the Midlands.

Partner - Planning and Development Consultancy Location: Northamptonshire Confidential appointment Immediate Partner / Equity opportunity for the right individual, or a clearly defined pathway Joshua Robert are supporting a confidential appointment for an established consultancy looking to strengthen its planning and development offer across the Midlands. This is aimed at an experienced MRTPI-qualified planning professional who is either already operating at Partner level, or is close to that point but does not yet have the title, influence or reward to match. The opportunity is straightforward: lead, grow and shape a regional planning consultancy offer with genuine autonomy and a serious commercial platform behind you. For the right person, this can include immediate Partner status and equity participation. If that is not appropriate from day one, there is scope to agree a clear and structured pathway to achieve it. The Opportunity This is not a standard Planning Manager role. The client is looking for someone who can take ownership of a planning and development consultancy function, develop client relationships, win instructions and build a stronger regional presence. The role will suit someone who enjoys the commercial side of consultancy as much as the technical side: advising clients, identifying opportunities, building relationships and creating long-term value. There is already a platform to build from, but the successful candidate will have the freedom to shape the direction of the offer and grow it around their own market presence. Why It Is Worth Considering This opportunity is likely to appeal if you are asking yourself: Am I already operating at this level without the title or reward? Is my route to equity clear, or just talked about? Am I building value for someone else without a meaningful stake? Could I grow something faster with the right backing? Do I want more control over the clients, work and team I build? The client can offer: Immediate Partner status for the right person Potential equity participation A clear route to partnership if not immediate Senior-level package shaped around experience and commercial value Autonomy to lead and grow a regional planning function Existing relationships and workstreams to build from Scope to recruit and develop a team around you Direct influence in the direction of the business The Role The successful candidate will lead the growth of a planning and development consultancy offer across the Midlands.

Lead architectural decisions across API design, domain modelling, integration patterns, resilience, observability, and operational robustness, ensuring the platform is fit for 24/7 global production use. Work across multiple software engineering teams to drive consistency in engineering standards, development practices, and delivery execution while enabling teams to build in parallel without fragmentation. Partner with business and product stakeholders to translate commercial objectives into scalable technical solutions, balancing speed, quality, resilience, and long-term platform integrity. Define and implement improvements to software engineering processes, tooling, and ways of working, helping teams deliver high-quality software efficiently and predictably. Provide technical leadership across design reviews, incidents, scale discussions, and production learning loops, ensuring operational insights are continuously fed back into the architecture and codebase. Represent the engineering function in senior forums, communicate clearly with both technical and business leadership, and act as a thought leader on modern API platforms, distributed systems, and secure internet-scale engineering. What You'll Bring To The Role Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience). Typically 8+ years of relevant experience. Strong experience as a hands-on software engineer, with deep Java expertise and a track record of building and delivering production-grade distributed systems.
