This will ensure the beautiful nature of our rural area is maintained and enhance which is in east Surrey, bordering Kent and the London Boroughs to the north. We are a Green Belt authority with two National Landscapes in the District.\nWe know there are many things that residents love about Tandridge District including our fantastic location, our countryside and the community feel of our towns and villages. We think you will love Tandridge too.\nThe Role\nAre you an experienced planner with a deep commitment to delivering high quality placemaking through the Development Management system? Would you relish the chance to make a key positive contribution to a beautiful local authority on the edge of London? Do you want to have the chance to help shape the District and to make a big positive difference to the lives of Tandridge’s communities and environments? If so, if so, we have a role for you. \nWe are seeking a Principal Planning Officer to join the Development Management team. The successful candidate will take on some of the larger and most complex applications received by the Council. You will be supported by a Planning Development Manager who will be able to provide guidance but you will need to be able to work on your own initiative in dealing with your caseload. The position plays a crucial role in shaping the District’s environment and maintaining the Development Management team’s high performance. The role provides an excellent opportunity to broaden your experience and skill base in a friendly and supportive working environment with a great opportunity to further your career in planning.\nWhat we Offer \nWhen you join us your expertise, skills and experience will be valued, and your career development will be our priority.\nWe are committed to creating a collaborative and innovative environment which empowers you to thrive. You will be part of a friendly, supportive One Team culture with the chance to make a real difference.\nWe believe in balancing hard work with fun.

This means the current two tier system, where services are split between Surrey County Council and district and borough councils like Tandridge, will be replaced with larger councils, which handle all local services. \nAlthough this may lead to some uncertainty for anyone considering a role with us, this process will take several years and during that time we still need to provide services. \nWhen local government is reorganised, most staff will transfer to the new council which may offer additional opportunities for career development and variety as part of a larger organisation. The majority of the roles we currently have will still be needed whether that is for planning, housing, recycling and waste, finance, IT, HR etc.\n ","shortDescription":"","salaryDescription":"£46,045 - £52,379","publishDate":"2025-05-02T14:41:00.000Z","expirationDate":"2025-05-18T22:59:00.000Z","logoUri":"https://www.lgjobs.com/logos/logos/ce569e62-afdf-4ad9-997a-71e8c3647959.jpg","score":1,"featured":false,"enhanced":false}],"totalResults":1493,"page":1,"pageSize":20,"facets":{"ContractType":{"0":124,"1":1051,"2":174,"3":45,"4":2,"5":97},"WorkingPatterns":{"1":1109,"2":273,"3":110,"4":40,"5":14,"6":38,"7":136,"8":6},"EmployerType":{"charity/voluntary":1,"civil service/central government":17,"education":151,"health & social work/care":8,"local government":1314,"other":1,"social housing":1},"PublishDate":{"1":191,"2":384,"3":575,"4":923,"5":1493},"LocationType":{"1":2,"2":278,"3":1213},"JobTypes":{"administration":165,"apprenticeships":2,"asset management":16,"benefits and revenues":11,"building control":12,"business intelligence":14,"caretaking":31,"catering":15,"childcare":3,"commissioning":2,"communications":6,"community":43,"conservation":8,"customer service":29,"education":215,"engineering":15,"environmental":32,"finance":55,"graduate":1,"health and safety":16,"horticulture":1,"housing":88,"hr":10,"it support":30,"legal":41,"libraries":6,"maintenance":13,"management":76,"marketing":2,"museum":7,"planning":55,"policy":25,"political":2,"pr":1,"project management":23,"security":3,"social care":241,"social work":93,"surveyors":8,"teaching":218,"technician":1,"tourism":20,"transport":42,"voluntary":1,"waste management":15,"youth work":21}},"randomNumber":1,"noOfFeaturedJobs":12,"bounds":null,"error":null}},"dataUpdateCount":1,"dataUpdatedAt":1746205965072,"error":null,"errorUpdateCount":0,"errorUpdatedAt":0,"fetchFailureCount":0,"fetchFailureReason":null,"fetchMeta":null,"isInvalidated":false,"status":"success","fetchStatus":"idle"},"queryKey":["jobs",null,null,null,null,{},{"contractType":[],"workingPatterns":[],"locationType":[],"jobTypes":[],"employerType":[],"datePosted":5},2,1],"queryHash":"[\"jobs\",null,null,null,null,{},{\"contractType\":[],\"datePosted\":5,\"employerType\":[],\"jobTypes\":[],\"locationType\":[],\"workingPatterns\":[]},2,1]"},{"state":{"data":null,"dataUpdateCount":1,"dataUpdatedAt":1746205964922,"error":null,"errorUpdateCount":0,"errorUpdatedAt":0,"fetchFailureCount":0,"fetchFailureReason":null,"fetchMeta":null,"isInvalidated":false,"status":"success","fetchStatus":"idle"},"queryKey":["jobTypesAutocomplete",null],"queryHash":"[\"jobTypesAutocomplete\",null]"}]}
