The successful candidate will work as part of a team to provide a highly effective, high quality and efficient Planning Enforcement service which investigates breaches of planning control, including both a backlog and new cases.
Key Responsibilities:
·Manage a caseload of complaints about alleged breaches of planning control. This requires investigation and assessment; including site visits where required; associated administrative tasks; the carrying out of consultations and negotiations with interested parties; and where necessary, leading recommendations to senior officers and legal advisors as to the appropriate course of action.
·Lead on enforcement appeals. This includes acting as the key planning enforcement contact with the Planning Inspectorate, preparing and co-ordinating written submissions and representations made on behalf of the Council.
·Attend and promote the Councils planning services at decision-making committees, meetings, working groups, boards, and external events where representation in respect of enforcement and monitoring matters is required (e.g., liaison group meetings, appeal hearings, public inquiries, and Examinations in Public).
The successful candidate must have previous Planning Enforcement experience within a UK local authority; will have excellent communication skills and should feel comfortable working independently and in a team with support from Development Management and Legal Officers within the authority.
