Kinscope is a planning and engagement consultancy, operating throughout Victoria and southern New South Wales. We believe that constraints are an opportunity for creativity, and we tackle planning challenges by combining bold thinking, creative strategy, and deep local insight.

We are looking for a Regional Planner who has an eye for the future and a passion for problem solving. Our work ranges across statutory and strategic planning, working with development clients, local government and referral authorities – we like to take on challenging projects, and we always advocate for outcomes that improve living and built form experience wherever we work.

Offices are located in Westmeadows, Bendigo, Torquay, Ballarat and Wangaratta. With flexible working options and offices across the state we can provide the opportunity to be close to the activities you love in your spare time, whether you ride, ski, surf, dine, whatever you chose.

While Kinscope has a broad coverage and multiple offices, we still look after our people like a small family run business. Yes, you need the technical skills to do the job, but we are just as interested in who you are, and how we can support you to do your best work.

We provide:

• the encouragement of professional development and rewarding of continual improvement,

• managers, other senior engineers, teammates, and other in-office professionals that can support and mentor your professional and personal development,

• a reluctance to "Pidgeon hole" your abilities, and an opportunity to keep your working days variable and busy.

• a good work life balance with work flexibility,

• a fun and supportive office culture looking to be the best we can be,

• a competitive salary.
