Jenny Adams joins to strengthen planning team
22/03/2022
Mather Jamie has increased the size of its planning team following the appointment of Jenny Adams as a Planning Manager.
Jenny, who is from Keyworth in Nottingham, is a Chartered Planner, having studied a BA in Geography and MSc in Planning. She joins the company from Arup where she was an Associate Planner.
Having joined as graduate 11 years ago, she helped to grow and manage Arup’s Nottingham planning team and has worked on a variety of strategic planning and economic regeneration projects. Latterly she was involved in supporting towns on the Towns Fund programme and progressing the planning consent for the National Rehabilitation Centre at the Stanford Hall Rehabilitation Estate.
In her new role, Jenny will be working closely with Tom Collins, helping to progress sites forward on behalf of clients, from allocation in the local plan system to outline application.
Commenting on her appointment, Jenny said, “The role sounded really interesting as I would have the opportunity to work on numerous sites and understand how they progress through the planning system from start to finish. It also felt like the right point in my career to explore planning from a new perspective as well as experience working for a smaller firm.”
In her spare time Jenny is generally quite outdoorsy and sporty. She has previously climbed Mt Kilimanjaro for the water charity Dig Deep and is currently training to participate in the Belles of Belvoir 80k cycle challenge on 12 June, which uniquely promises multiple cake stations on the route.
