About Ethos Urban

We are a multi-disciplinary business that brings together planning, urban design, property economics, social strategy, community engagement, and project management to deliver better solutions to complex problems and achieve better urban outcomes for our community.

Our team of professionals is vibrant, enthusiastic, and highly skilled, and we're looking to grow that team by adding new like-minded people who share our passion for planning and development.

We undertake extensive work in both statutory and strategic planning, covering all sectors including residential, commercial, retail, tourism, health, education, industry, and infrastructure.

At Ethos Urban, you will have opportunities to work on the most exciting city-shaping projects, with great colleagues, and with the most high-profile clients in the industry.

We believe we can always improve the urban life experience by creating engaging places that connect us to where we need to go, meet our changing needs, and create opportunities for everyone to thrive.

For over 25 years, our people have worked in partnership with the public and private sectors to provide them with the momentum to realise their ambitions for better places, communities, and cities.

About the Role

We are currently seeking a Principal Planner to join our highly engaged team of urban development professionals. This role will suit a dynamic and passionate individual looking to take the next step in their professional career.

Our ideal candidate for this role will have planning experience working within the private or public sector, an outcomes-oriented attitude, excellent client liaison skills, be a team player, and have a passion for working in a high-performing organisation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead moderate to large-scale projects as a Project Manager and provide oversight of multiple projects while developing the skills of others.
  • Invest in long-term relationships with clients, improve the overall client experience, and generate repeat business.
  • Work collaboratively across a wide range of projects and services within the organisation's diversified portfolios as part of multidisciplinary project teams.
  • Liaise regularly with clients, understand their needs, deliver high-quality work, and manage small to large projects.
  • Further develop consultancy and project management capabilities and enhance the ability to work with relevant policy and legislation.

We are looking for an experienced Principal Planner who has a tertiary qualification in Planning or a related degree/discipline, 5 to 8+ years of urban planning experience within a professional services firm or state/local government, well-developed organisational and time management skills, and sound working knowledge of the NSW planning framework.

Why Work with Us?

The business of creating a better urban experience is a complex one that requires patience, diligence, intelligence, and a passion for making a difference to our experience of urban life.

We view each project as a complex puzzle that requires different perspectives and alternative angles to solve it. At Ethos Urban, no one individual ever has the answer. It's only when we bring people with different specialisations from different teams that we can see the full picture and then the way forward.

We continue to hire great people with a diversity of skills, experience, and backgrounds. This includes people with disability, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people identifying as LGBTIQ+, culturally and linguistically diverse people, carers, and other diversity groups.

We back our people: we are proponents of flexible work, provide generous leave provisions, 18 weeks paid parental leave, paid study leave, and access to transitional coaching.

We have adopted the globally recognised United Nations Sustainable Development Goals as our ESG framework. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a clearly defined pathway to improving our world, and how business can align its goals and actions to help us all collectively get there.
