Liam South

Senior Consultant
  • Town Planning Division

Liam is our longest-serving consultant in the Town Planning division, covering London & the Southeast (from Kent, right along to Hampshire, and up again to Berkshire).

 

He works with interim consultants, from officer all the way up to executive level, in the following remits:

 

  • Development Management

  • Planning Policy

  • Planning Enforcement

  • Conservation & Historic Buildings

  • Interim Management

 

Originally from Cambridgeshire, he studied Radio Production at Staffordshire University before moving to Nottingham. Deciding he wanted to transition into recruitment, he relocated to London in 2021.

 

A football fanatic (both English & American), he spends his free time watching or playing the game, although supporting Crystal Palace at times can be a challenge! He also enjoys setting himself running challenges; most recently running a half marathon with Wembley as the finishing line, to raise money for Men’s Mental Health.

Excellent candidate care as per normal for Park Avenue.

Senior Planning Policy Officer
Berkshire

Liam is always helpful in relation to the questions I have in relation to the role(s) I am going for. Liam is courteous and responds quickly to emails and phone calls. Liam comes across as the consummate professional and I really cannot fault him!

Planning Enforcement Officer
London

Liam South was proactive in contacting me, remembering I had contacted him previously about a specific candidate. I also appreciated him then contacting me first when the contractor became available again. He is respectful not to chase me when he knows I haven't got a post available, or call up to make 'small talk' or give unsuitable CVs. He is professional, responsive and easy to communicate with, which means I can work with him confidently to navigate the current process challenges my organisation is having, and provide greater job security to my contractor.

Planning Policy Team Leader
Berkshire

Liam has been my Recruitment Consultant for the past year and I have been extremely pleased with the personable approach, attention to the smallest detail and high standard of service. He is very professional, and trustworthy. Liam responds quickly to queries, provides clear feedback and understands the role and person spec very well. I would highly recommend Liam to other Planning Professionals and have (with his agreement), passed his details on to some Contractor colleagues.
