ELLEN MACLEOD

Senior Planning Consultant and Innovation Lead

My joint experience in planning and project management and logistics means I excel in periods of high caseload and take a process-focused approach to planning. Recently returning from an exciting trip to New Zealand, I drew inspiration from their strong self-build culture, and wide-open spaces.

I hold a postgraduate degree with Distinction from Heriot-Watt University, a First-class Undergraduate degree from the University of Birmingham and am fully chartered by the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI).

Outside of work, I’m an avid sports enthusiast, and will give any sport a go – most recently I have been enjoying Padel. I believe in the power of strategic thinking and thrive on both professional and athletic challenges. Whether crafting rural landscapes or conquering new sports territories, I aim to make a positive impact and inspire others to reach their full potential.
