FRAME Projects | London Legacy Development Corporation Quality Review Panel chair
Closing Date | Monday 19 July 2021, at 17.00.
The London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) is inviting applications for the role of chair / co-chair for the Quality Review Panel, which supports the Legacy Corporation’s commitment to high quality design in new development within the area.
LLDC is a Mayoral Development Corporation responsible for the regeneration of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and neighbouring areas in the London Boroughs of Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest. It has responsibility for all planning functions, including development of the Legacy Corporation’s Local Plan and determination of planning applications.
Since 2012 the Quality Review Panel has provided independent expert advice on developments across the Development Corporation area. Peter Studdert, who is stepping down, has chaired the panel since it was established, making a huge contribution to supporting high quality developments including the new East Bank cultural and education district, and residential neighbourhoods at Hackney Wick and Chobham Manor.
Frame Projects is now looking for a new chair / co-chairs for the Quality Review Panel, on behalf of the LLDC. The panel currently comprises 30 nationally and internationally recognised practitioners with a wide range of expertise and experience – across several disciplines – providing a rigorous review process that supports high quality design for all those who live, work and visit the area.
Applications are encouraged from individuals who have extensive experience of championing high quality urban design and architecture, a demonstrable understanding of how to achieve this through the town planning process and a knowledge of east London, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and its surrounding area.
Applications are particularly encouraged from women, people from Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds and disabled people, as these groups are currently under-represented throughout the building industry.
Applications should be addressed to Frame Projects, which manages the Quality Review Panel to maintain the independence of its advice.
