Intermediate or Senior Planner

Let’s cut right to the chase

Will this planning role be interesting and challenging?
Will it be a chance to work on a wide variety of projects?
Will it be a friendly, supportive, and truly flexible place to work?

The short answer is: Yes, to all of the above!
Need the long answer? Here it is:

We work on interesting and varied projects and have great clients, both in the private and public sectors.

As a key part of our business, you’ll be providing expert advice to our clients and other stakeholders on planning and resource management matters. You’ll also prepare and process resource consent applications for a wide variety of projects in urban, rural and coastal locations.

You want this role because…
You have a planning related qualification and you’re eligible for membership of the NZPI,
You’ve got at least three years resource consent experience under your belt, either with a planning consultancy or Council,
You have experience managing mid to large – scale projects end to end,
You want to work somewhere that has real flexibility, allowing you to do the things that matter to you,
You have better things to do with your time than spending hours a day stuck in traffic.
Interesting? Tick!

We’re a friendly and supportive team and are looking for an experienced planner who can manage their own time and workload. We’ll offer on-going professional development, NZPI membership and a competitive salary.

This suits you because…
You’re an experienced planner with ambition, initiative and drive,
You’re a team player, and able to manage input from other specialists,
Your ability to communicate both face to face and in writing is key to your success,
You’re keen to grow, learn and contribute new skills.
Autonomy plus opportunity to grow? Tick!

The best bit? Us! We don’t pay lip service to flexibility. This is a team that understands that life doesn’t just happen after hours, but at all sorts of hours. Which is why we embrace a flexible work environment where we make your job work for you. This role could be either full time or part time, with hours to suit (including some working from home if desirable) and is based in Silverdale – perfect to avoid that city-bound traffic and yet only 10 minutes from the North Shore or 20 minutes from Hobsonville or Huapai! Car parks are free, the bus station is a 5-minute walk away and you can enjoy some beach sunshine at lunchtime- hard to beat that!

All round awesome place to be? Tick and trifecta.
So, who are we?

We’re Planning Plus, and you might already be able to tell that we think we’re a little different to your average consultancy. On the outside, we’re an expert team of planning consultants who provide comprehensive, professional planning advice. We’re big on customer service and we’re recognised for our honest, reliable and professional approach. On the inside though, we’re a close-knit team who want to do excellent work, alongside great people.
