The Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) champions the power of planning in creating prosperous places and vibrant communities. We represent over 27,000 members worldwide, supporting them throughout their careers. We shape planning policy, raise professional standards and are the only body in the UK to confer Chartered status to planners, the highest professional qualification.
These are important and exciting times for planning in Scotland. With a new Planning Act in place and the National Planning Framework 4 over a year old, the profession's focus now turns to the Scottish Government's corresponding Delivery Programme. RTPI Scotland has been heavily involved with the preparation of the NPF4 and we will look to be supporting the implementation of the framework. This post will be key in supporting a number of our current workstreams including magazine programming and editing, resourcing research, developing our programme to enhance the pipeline of planners, supporting policy development and consultation responses.
