Director of Planning and Development
Islington Council
Circa £130,000
Islington is a dynamic and wonderfully diverse inner London borough serving over 215,000 residents. We are determined to create a more equal Islington, where everyone who lives here has an equal chance to thrive. We are one of the most densely populated and built-up areas in the country, home to thriving town centres, borders with the City of London, outstanding heritage, cultural and leisure assets, and precious green spaces, all within six square miles.
THE ROLE
This is a unique London planning role; we strongly believe that local planning and development are progressive tools which play a vital role in tackling the housing crisis and economic disadvantage. We hold all development to exceptionally high standards to meet the needs of our residents and businesses and are looking for a leader who is as passionate as we are about high-quality design and maximising planning benefits in a complex urban environment.
