You'll receive mentoring, structured development opportunities, and exposure to real projects that will help you build technical capability and consulting experience from day one.

What You'll Be Doing

• Assisting with planning and environmental assessment projects across Victoria.
• Undertaking research into planning controls, policies, legislation, and approval pathways.
• Supporting the preparation of planning permit applications, reports, submissions, and due diligence assessments.
• Reviewing planning schemes, zones, overlays, and referral requirements.
• Assisting with project coordination, document management, and tracking project actions and deliverables.
• Supporting meetings with clients, councils, and stakeholders and preparing meeting notes and follow-up actions.
• Collaborating with planners, environmental specialists, engineers, and other technical professionals across multidisciplinary projects.
• Developing your knowledge of Victorian planning legislation, environmental approvals, and impact assessment processes.

• The ability to manage multiple tasks and meet deadlines.
• A collaborative approach and willingness to learn from experienced professionals.
