Further Information
It is an exciting time to work at Peterborough City Council. Peterborough is on the cusp of a growth and regeneration revolution. We are ambitious and aspirational.
We already have significant regeneration planned for development of key areas of our city like our Station Quarter and new University and we have attracted over £80m in government funding to facilitate our plans. We have a clear vision for how we want to expand and are attracting private investment into the city.
The planning team is recognised within the Council as being vital to the continued growth of the city and you will play a part in that.

Work has recently commenced on our new Local Plan setting out our growth ambitions to 2044. We are seeking a Senior Planner to join our friendly planning policy team playing a role in the delivery of our planning policy documents. Our Local Plan will establish where and how Peterborough should grow, decide how many homes we should build and determine where new jobs should be located. At the same time, these plans will protect the very things that make Peterborough a great place to live, such as our parks and historic areas.
We need a qualified planner with experience in planning policy who can help deliver our diverse and exciting policy service.

If you think this sounds like something you would enjoy doing, please do get in touch, and we can tell you all about the exciting and varied work that the team does. There has never been a better time to join us, as you will have the opportunity to shape the future of Peterborough.

Peterborough City Council recognises the need to develop flexible working practices and enable employees to maximise their performance and productivity whilst maintaining a good work life balance. This role is suitable for a hybrid model of office-based and remote working.

We are proud to serve the diverse communities of Peterborough and want our workforce to reflect this diversity, which we believe is beneficial for our employees, the organisation and the communities we serve.
