Meet the Director
Grant Scott has over 25 years experience of town and commercial planning. He is one of the UK’s leading waste planners and has helped to divert over 2 million tonnes of waste a year from landfill to generate low carbon energy – enough to power the homes in Liverpool and Leeds combined. In addition Grant has successfully secured planning permission for countless recycling facilities and landfills.
Grant specialises in the controversial, complicated and convoluted. His work encompasses local authority, regulatory, consultancy and client-side roles, covering all aspects of development planning throughout England, Scotland and Wales.
He has worked as a client-side planner for one of the UK’s leading waste/recycling companies, Viridor, and prior to that he was the sole planner within Mouchel’s waste team where he was involved in major PFI bid work and large-scale energy from waste schemes.
Grant’s previous roles include working for other major waste operators including Urbaser and Shanks, as well as working on infrastructure projects for Welsh Water (AMP 3,4,5), the Co-op and the Highways Agency on major motorways schemes.
