Located between Nottingham and Derby, Erewash Borough comprises both rural Green Belt and the busy towns of Long Eaton and Ilkeston.

Duties involve preparing evidence for a Local Plan Inquiry and engaging with a wide range of stakeholders in the preparation of policy documents.

You must be able to demonstrate up-to-date planning policy knowledge, a recognised town planning qualification or equivalent and be eligible for membership of the RTPI.

This post is full time and is based at Long Eaton Town Hall. There may be a requirement occasionally to work outside of normal office hours in consultations or to attend committee meetings.

In addition to a generous annual leave entitlement, the Council can offer:

  • Free workplace car parking within the Borough;
  • Opportunities for training, learning and continuous professional development;
  • Family friendly and flexible working policies;
