In the land team, you will work alongside engineers, environmental specialists and planners on high profile infrastructure projects providing the level of diligent inquiry needed for the successful acceptance of planning submissions. Undertake land referencing activities including HMLR land registry research, desktop research, questionnaire analysis, landowner liaison, site visits, data management and archival investigations to identify all legal land interests and rights in land. Negotiate access to land so that environmental and other surveys can be carried out. Support the team in securing and acquiring appropriate land rights for large scale development projects as well as negotiation of Heads of Terms to secure land for projects in a timely fashion, utilising the appropriate mechanism. Utilise statutory powers and the relevant statutory process to acquire land (TWAO, DCO, NCIP, GPDO, Vesting Order, Hybrid bill, CPO) on behalf of WSP clients across the electricity, highway, rail, water, telecoms, gas and renewable energy sectors. YOUR TEAM
This is an exciting opportunity to become part of our multi-disciplinary service line within the WSP Land Team in the delivery of land referencing, land acquisition, land access, formal consents, statutory orders and compensation agreements and landowner management. Our clients develop major highway, rail, energy and renewable infrastructure and projects all of which impact privately owned land. You will work as part of a team of Land Consultants assisting in the liaison with landowners that may be affected by development, obtaining the appropriate consent, gaining access and where necessary compensating them for the impact caused by the scheme. As part of our Land Team you will combine office, home and on-site working to support the delivery of land access and land acquisition projects through the identification of land ownership, consultation with landowners, undertaking property valuation, assessing and negotiating compensation, combining skills in GIS, data management and landowner engagement. The role would ideally suit someone wanting to develop their skills in the Land sector as they will gain experience across significant infrastructure projects in rail, road and the energy sectors and consent regimes including Development Consent Order (DCO) and Transport and Works Act Order (TWAO). We will support your professional development with a relevant professional organisation such as Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) or the Royal Geographical Society (RGS). The role may also encompass working with our land negotiation teams across a variety of commercial, residential and agricultural properties. What we will be looking for you to demonstrate…
