Lower Hutt, New Zealand Urban Edge Planning Limited Full time

We value quality in the workplace. This represents quality work and communication with clients and stakeholders. However, it also includes a quality environment for our staff. For this reason, we hold regular staff activities, ensure a well-stocked kitchen, and encourage work/life balance.

**THE ROLE**:
These projects often require the advice and input from other experts. While we usually cover urban design and landscape expertise in house we also frequently work with and rely on the input from external experts such as architects, ecologists, transport planners and engineers to inform our plans and achieve the best outcomes.

We also have a strong focus on helping Councils with the review of their District Plans and on the development of higher level policy and guidance, especially in relation to the management of natural hazards.

The main focus of the role would be on:

- Preparing district plan changes
- Writing provisions and section 32 evaluation reports
- Preparing and presenting expert hearing evidence
- Manging and leading project teams

We currently have an exciting opportunity available for a Senior Planner in a permanent role - either part time or full time. An interest in natural hazards planning would be ideal but is not necessary.
- Sound understanding of the RMA and other relevant legislation;
- A minimum 5 years experience in New Zealand planning;
- Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to communicate effectively with clients and team members;
- Excellent written skills;
- Enthusiastic and can-do attitude;
- Ability to think outside the square and be creative; and
- Must be eligible to work in New Zealand.

**What we can offer you**:

- A company that values and recognises its staff;
- Exposure to a wide variety of interesting developments and projects, including multi-disciplinary projects;
- A collaborative and supportive working environment;
- Competitive remuneration;
- Flexible working hours;
- Mentoring; and
- Work/life balance.
