Design & Planning Coordinator (Graduate / Junior – up to 3 yrs exp)
£28,000 – £35,000 - depending on experience
North West | Main Contractor | Permanent

I’m working with a well‑established North West main contractor who are looking to strengthen their design function, while also bringing in planning support, through the appointment of a Junior Design & Planning Coordinator.

This is a dual‑role position, supporting the design process while also assisting with planning‑related duties. The role would suit a built‑environment graduate or someone with 1–4 years’ experience in a design‑based role who is comfortable working across both areas.

This is not a hands‑on designer role, but you must be design‑aware and comfortable working with drawings, consultants and the wider design process.

The role

• Supporting the coordination of the design process across pre‑construction and delivery
• Working alongside architects, engineers and other consultants
• Tracking design information, revisions and outstanding actions
• Assisting with design development and design reviews
• Supporting planning submissions, planning conditions and planning‑related design information
• Acting as the link between design, planning and construction teams
• Helping ensure projects are properly designed and ready to progress

The right background

This role would suit someone who is:

• A built‑environment graduate (Architecture, Architectural Technology, Construction, Planning or similar), or
• Someone with 1–4 years’ experience in a design‑related role

Relevant backgrounds include:

• Assistant Design Coordinator
• Junior / Assistant Design Manager
• Architectural Technician / Technologist
• Graduate Architect (Part I / II)
• Design Technician with planning exposure
