DPP strengthens senior leadership team

An independent planning consultancy has bolstered its senior leadership team in its Newcastle office.

DPP Planning has welcomed Laura Chandler as principal planner. 

Laura brings more than ten years' planning experience, having previously worked at ID Planning, in Leeds, where she managed major commercial and residential projects including three Garden Suburb EIA sites in Calderdale and Kirklees.

She has been MRTPI Chartered since 2015, and is a member of the North East Young Planners. 

Gareth Hooper, DPP Planning chief executive, said: “We’re delighted to have a new addition joining the senior leadership team.

"Laura brings unrivalled knowledge and expertise, and is already adding value to our team and clients.

“Laura joins us at a very exciting time.

"Following the promotion of three existing team members into senior roles earlier in the year, we’re experiencing a period of significant growth. 

“And being able to foster talent within the team in this way, in addition to bringing in new and fresh expertise, is putting us in very good stead for 2025 and beyond.”
