CPRE Sussex the countryside charity
Love the countryside? Care about climate, nature, housing and local people’s voices? Leading countryside charity, CPRE Sussex, is
seeking an experienced and enthusiastic planning professional to join our team.
CPRE Sussex has campaigned for over 50 years to protect, celebrate and regenerate the Sussex countryside. Part of the England-wide CPRE network, with over 2000 members and supporters, the charity works to ensure that good development to create healthy, thriving communities meets the challenges of the housing, climate and nature crises and that poor development does not take away from what makes Sussex s landscapes so special.
As our Planning Campaigner, you will bring your planning qualifications and experience to support CPRE Sussex s work across the full range of land use planning issues, working with our dedicated part-time staff and passionate group of volunteers and trustees
to:
- shape our response to emerging Local Plans across East and West Sussex and Brighton & Hove,
- comment on significant development proposals to ensure we get schemes that deliver locally-needed affordable housing, low-carbon infrastructure and other key services, while protecting precious landscapes, green spaces, nature and climate,
- inform and advise the public on planning matters.
Reporting to the Director, and working closely with the volunteer chair of our planning committee, as well as the England-wide CPRE network, you will lead our campaigns on local and national planning policy.
