Careers

At Plainview Planning we pride ourselves on the calibre of our staff.  We strongly believe that a company is only as good as its component parts.  Therefore we employ people who can give exceptional customer service and are eager to bring a keen eye and fresh perspective to planning.  In return we offer our staff the opportunity to grow in a supportive and inspiring environment.  We view our working relationships as a conversation and we like dynamic, eye opening and challenging conversations.

 

Interested?

If you are interested in working with us you must be an RTPI member with at least 5 years experience.  Please send your c.v. to info@plainview.co.uk

 

Other roles:

We are always interested to hear from architects, CAD technicians, surveyors or graphic designers.  Regional partnerships may be available.  Email us at info@plainview.co.uk

Why Use Plainview Planning?

Why Use Plainview Planning?

We appreciate that there are lots of planning consultants and architects out there - so why choose Plainview Planning?

We are a friendly, approachable firm that takes pride in providing honest advice and innovative solutions to our clients. We also believe that everyone deserves expert planning advice, and we take pride in helping our corporate and private clients every step of the way.


Honest advice

Honest advice

We provide honest up-front advice about your project. If you do not have a good chance of success we will tell you. We think our honest approach to projects is why our three year success rate is 89% for all our applications, appeals and enforcement work.

Our team of planning experts are familiar with all aspects of the planning system, and prepare application and appeal documentation that is robust and persuasive.

Fixed Fee

Fixed Fee

We aim to be very transparent with our fee structure. All projects are on a fixed fee basis, and invoiced stage-by-stage.

There will never be any nasty surprises like photocopying charges, mileage allowance or additional hours.  What you see on a Plainview Planning quote is what you pay. We believe in clear, simple billing for all our clients.

Clear timelines

Clear timelines

We believe in a simple and clear approach to all projects. At the beginning of every new case we break it down into clearly defined stages, with appropriate goals and milestones. This is discussed and agreed with our client from the outset.

We provide regular updates to our clients during each stage, and are always available to discuss your project.
