Senior planner joins Fisher German

Property consultancy Fisher German has appointed Andrew Johnson as senior planner in its Ashby office, in Leicestershire, following a 13-year career in the public sector.

Andrew joins from Erewash Borough Council, bringing expertise in strategic planning, policy development and place-making to the growing team.

He began his planning career in 2012 and has worked closely with Fisher German colleagues through the RTPI Young Planners committee.

He said: “I’ve always enjoyed the theoretical and long-term side of planning – looking at how places evolve and what we can do today to shape their future.

“Having worked on the forward-thinking side of development management, I’m now keen to support landowners and promoters, and to work closely with Fisher German’s development agency team, to bring together strategy and delivery.

“I see Fisher German as an ambitious business that values collaboration across all the different disciplines of the company.

“I’m excited to be part of a team that’s helping shape the future of places across the UK.”

Partner Angela Brooks, who heads up the strategic planning team at Fisher German, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Andrew to the team.

“His strong foundation in public sector planning and clear enthusiasm for strategic policy will add real value to the work we do across the country.

“Andrew brings the kind of insight and mindset that aligns perfectly with our collaborative approach to planning and development.”
