Nassau County, Florida
Nassau County, Florida, FL, USA
Tucked into Florida’s northeast corner and hugging the Atlantic Ocean along Interstate 95 north of Jacksonville, Nassau County’s 726 square miles form the eastern gateway to the Sunshine State. From pristine beaches and natural preserves to historic landmarks and first-class amenities, the community of over 101,500 residents is among the fastest-growing counties in the country — and it’s no surprise. Through land use planning, zoning regulations, and conservation efforts, the county balances growth with environmental stewardship, creating livable communities and enhancing the quality of life for its residents.
The Planning Department is looking to hire five positions that will assist with complex projects and development reviews — with various levels of responsibility — in a fast-growing County that prides itself on innovative planning practices.
General responsibilities include reviewing development applications in master-planned areas, performing site development reviews, evaluating and formulating land use and transportation strategies, conducting policy research, analyzing elements of the Comprehensive Plan, and preparing written analyses and presentations of development applications and proposals.
These roles will also prepare draft ordinances and amendments to ordinances and work closely with a variety of stakeholders, including colleagues across the County, engineers, contractors, consultants, architects, elected and appointed leaders, community/civic organizations, and the general public.
The Principal Planner is often a team lead on planning projects, while the Senior Planner, Planner II, Planner I, and the Planning Technician staff offer additional support. Nassau County expects to hire up to five candidates in a combination of these positions.
The ideal candidates for these roles take a collaborative approach to their work, excel in organizing and prioritizing their work activities, and continually learn and apply new skills to enhance their performance and efficiency. They are also adept communicators and relationship builders who will work well with colleagues throughout the organization, area property owners and builders, planning professionals, and the public.
Requirements vary according to the position being pursued. American Institute of Certified Planners credentials would be valuable for any of these roles, and department leaders are willing to train the right candidates.
Nassau County is offering various salary ranges for the planning positions available, and titles and salaries will be dependent upon qualifications and experience:
Principal Planner: $68,801-$104,689
Senior Planner: $62,547-$95,172
