Planning is core business to the GLA. We are looking for someone to support the management of the Planning Service.

You will be very organised, personable and solution orientated, and keen to get involved with the work of the planning team. 

The GLA is a high profile and fast-paced environment, and therefore this role will often be busy and challenging, but also exciting and very rewarding. You must be confident operating in a fast-paced and constantly changing environment and be able to demonstrate the ability to remain calm and clear headed under pressure. 

This role will be based initially at City Hall and subsequently at the London Fire Brigade’s Head Office (Union Street SE1 0LL). Further information about the relocation of City Hall can be found here: https://www.london.gov.uk/press-releases/mayoral/mayor-confirms-relocation-of-city-hall
