Planning Services Practice Leader (Southern CA, Flexible/Hybrid Work Schedule!)

John D. Hugunin Professional Recruiting / Anywhere in Southern California
Posted on: August 15, 2022

Application Deadline: Open until filled

Job Description

De Novo Planning Group is a small and growing California-based environmental planning firm, currently expanding into Southern California. Their unprecedented growth has created a need for a Planning Services Practice Leader to expand their presence in Southern California!

This is an outstanding opportunity for a hands-on planner who takes great pride in what they do to set their own career path, and to establish/lead/grow your practice just as you envision it. Your technical expertise can be in CEQA, long-range planning, General/Specific Plans, etc., and can focus on either public or private development.

You’re a strong doer who takes pride in your work, who also has excellent people-skills to lead your team with, oversee work production and grow the firm into a new geographic area. Your work ethic, client-orientation, and appetite for challenge and variety will be rewarded with De Novo’s performance-based compensation and equity buy-in programs!

De Novo offers an entrepreneurial and low-hierarchy culture, with flexible schedules and hybrid home/office arrangements. They’re a firm of doers, whose owners work just as hard as everyone else here. A motivated individual with leadership skills (or leadership potential) can pretty much write their own job description – you’ll be given the resources to achieve your vision for growing YOUR practice the way you want it!
