🚨 Principal Planning Officers – Contract Opportunity | Oxfordshire | Inside IR35 🚨

I'm working with a local authority in Oxfordshire that is looking to appoint at least two experienced Principal Planning Officers on an initial 6-month contract, with strong potential for extension.

This is an excellent opportunity to work on a diverse and high-profile portfolio, including:

✅ Major planning applications
✅ Complex and politically sensitive cases
✅ Urban and rural development projects
✅ Development Consent Order (DCO) applications (experience desirable, not essential)

We're looking for experienced planning professionals who can hit the ground running, manage a varied caseload, and make an immediate impact within a busy planning team.
