You will ideally: • Have experience in a consultancy, developer, public body or housing association., • Have a passion for regeneration and placemaking., • Excellent communication, written and numerate skills., • Be a genuine team player. These roles will suit ambitious individuals who are keen to roll their sleeves up, and in exchange you will gain the opportunity to work on one the region’s most important sites.
