NLP is one of a small number of consultancies with RTPI Learning Partner status in recognition of our commitment to training and development at all levels.

Our Graduates and Planners are mentored by colleagues at Senior Planner level and above to assist them in successfully completing their APC and achieving chartered status. We run seminars to help those in the RTPI’s APC process, and we also fully support RICS (Planning and Development) APC.

Our active Training Plan ensures our professionals continually extend their skills and knowledge-base and our MENTOR initiative provides on-going career development support for staff at all levels.

NLP has been rated as ‘Outstanding’ by Best Companies (an independent benchmarking exercise) and feedback from our latest employee opinion survey showed that 97% of respondents would recommend NLP as a good place to work. Our workgroup structures and regular team meetings ensure all staff contribute to and receive feedback on the direction of the Company.

We are proud of our reputation for quality, professionalism and training; new starters will be expected to contribute to that, bringing their ideas and management expertise to bear at NLP. In return for your commitment we offer interesting and varied projects, career development, great colleagues and the chance to be part of our success.

We offer a highly competitive salary and benefits package reflecting the quality of an individual’s experience, technical skills and what that person can add to our business. NLP is an equal opportunities employer.

NLP’s calendar of social events is busy and varied, with seasonal socials and “unofficial” events in between. These events have involved dragon boat racing, waterskiing and horse racing along with quiz evenings and wine tasting. We also arrange weekend study tours and team building events for the whole company.
