Savills : Planning division retains number 1 spot in Planning magazine’s Annual Consultancy Survey

The survey analysis shows that Savills has the largest planning team in most of the geographies in which we operate, including London.

Planning magazine notes, 'The biggest employer, Savills, records its seventh consecutive year in the leading position.' And goes on, 'Savills this year consolidates its lead in our listing, increasing Charetered Town Planner numbers from 189 to 197. It says an upturn in development activity, particularly in the logistics, life sciences, data centres and housing sectors, helped drive the increase, alongside expansion at its Brighton office and growth of its London team.'

David Jackson, head of planning at Savills says: 'This is another great result for our business, confirming our leading position in the market place and extending our run at the top to seven years. This is only possible because of the hard work and dedication that all members of our national team have contributed over a particularly challenging 12 months.'
