You can also expect an excellent benefits package that includes corporate memberships, discount and salary sacrifice schemes, reimbursement of professional membership fees, up to 31 days holiday and Christmas closure, access to the Local Government Pension Scheme, and much, much more. There has never been a better time to make the move to Folkestone & Hythe.\n \nAbout You \nOur District has a varied geography and a substantial number of protected trees. You will take a lead role in all tree related matters, including assessing trees for protection, processing applications and appeals, and providing related specialist advice and guidance to planning officers, enforcement teams, the public, and Councillors. You will also provide key input into the landscape led design at Otterpool and increase opportunities for this across the District.\nYou will need to have experience of assessing trees for Tree Preservation Orders, a thorough knowledge of tree shrub and hedge maintenance, and a solid understanding of relevant arboricultural legislation. The role operates with a degree of autonomy so you will also be a team player who can operate on their own initiative. But above all else, if you’re as passionate and committed as we are about our landscapes, environment and communities, then we want to hear from you.\nThis post is politically restricted (sensitive). \nWant to find out more?\n<a href=\"https://www.folkestone-hythe.gov.uk/homepage/124/take-your-planning-career-to-the-next-stage\">Take your career to the next stage and find out more about what we are doing and what it is like working for us by clicking here</a>\nFor an informal conversation about the role please contact Lisette Patching, CIL and Enforcement Team Leader via <a href=\"mailto:lisette.patching@folkestone-hythe.gov.uk\">lisette.patching@folkestone-hythe.gov.uk</a>","shortDescription":"","salaryDescription":"£37,204 – £49,655 (Depending on skills and experience)","publishDate":"2025-04-15T09:30:00.000Z","expirationDate":"2025-05-12T11:00:00.000Z","logoUri":"https://www.jobsgopublic.com/logos/logos/071388ba-c3be-4a94-b3d2-8ade08eed5c7.png","score":1,"featured":false,"enhanced":false}],"totalResults":1,"page":1,"pageSize":20,"facets":{"ContractType":{"1":1},"WorkingPatterns":{"1":1},"EmployerType":{"local government":1},"PublishDate":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":0,"5":1},"LocationType":{"2":1},"JobTypes":{"planning":1}},"randomNumber":0,"noOfFeaturedJobs":0,"bounds":[{"lat":51.105186,"lng":1.117001},{"lat":51.07164,"lng":1.117001},{"lat":51.07164,"lng":1.2212356},{"lat":51.105186,"lng":1.2212356},{"lat":51.105186,"lng":1.117001}],"error":null}},"dataUpdateCount":1,"dataUpdatedAt":1746817713279,"error":null,"errorUpdateCount":0,"errorUpdatedAt":0,"fetchFailureCount":0,"fetchFailureReason":null,"fetchMeta":null,"isInvalidated":false,"status":"success","fetchStatus":"idle"},"queryKey":["jobs",null,"folkestone",null,null,{},{"contractType":[],"workingPatterns":[],"locationType":[],"jobTypes":["planning"],"employerType":[],"datePosted":5},2,1],"queryHash":"[\"jobs\",null,\"folkestone\",null,null,{},{\"contractType\":[],\"datePosted\":5,\"employerType\":[],\"jobTypes\":[\"planning\"],\"locationType\":[],\"workingPatterns\":[]},2,1]"},{"state":{"data":[{"value":"Planning","slug":"planning"}],"dataUpdateCount":1,"dataUpdatedAt":1746817713283,"error":null,"errorUpdateCount":0,"errorUpdatedAt":0,"fetchFailureCount":0,"fetchFailureReason":null,"fetchMeta":null,"isInvalidated":false,"status":"success","fetchStatus":"idle"},"queryKey":["jobTypesAutocomplete","planning"],"queryHash":"[\"jobTypesAutocomplete\",\"planning\"]"}]}
