Working as a planning & development advisor with a well known national firm for a number of years and latterly as an entrepreneur in his own right - he has a great deal of experience and knowledge in greenfield development, agricultural proposals (notably poultry units and intensive agricultural expansion) and general business diversification proposals.
Oliver's pragmatic approach to the interpretation and application of planning law makes him a key asset to the company; There are few nationally recognised planning consultants - if any - that can boast the same unique blend of proven ability / academic qualification.
Oliver has extended his academic CV with further post-grad study through Harper Adams Agricultural University (Land Management) and is currently engaged in the prestigious Masters in Environmental Law - LLM programme with DeMontfort University.

Along side the planning objection company, Mel is also employed by our sister company - Bondstones - and handles all new enquiries and even a few projects of her own when she has time!
Following a management career in the Waste and Recycling Industry for over a decade, Rebecca finally found that her employer was interested in nothing more than profit at the expense of the environment - so she left the industry and joined Planning Objection Company team in early 2017.

The Planning Objection Company Ltd
(trading as iObject.co.uk). The business was founded in 2012 to provide a dedicated planning objection advice and consultancy service - specifically helping those people wishing to oppose planning proposals.
Planning applications submitted throughout the UK are able to be challenged by members of the public for a wide variety of reasons. However, how this is best achieved is generally unclear and can be extremely daunting to the uninitiated. We are planning consultants who specialise in helping people to get their views heard during the planning application phase of building and development projects. We currently cover the English and Welsh planning systems - which are governed by the Town & Country Planning Act 1990 (As amended) and by various National Planning Policy Guidance, along with statute and related policies. Local plans and planning authorities also have their own individual planning policies that add additional layers of complexity to the objection and representation process.
We are here to make the objection process simple, concise and straightforward - enabling our customers to build the best possible case for halting inappropriate development.
The company is proud to offer professional, ethical and bespoke, situation-appropriate advice. We are managed in accordance within the strict codes of professional conduct set out by both RICS and RTPI.
