Helen
Harrison
Town planning director
Belfast
Helen is responsible for the planning profession in Ireland with teams in Belfast and Dublin.
Her experience is extremely varied ranging from major planning applications for mixed-use and infrastructure projects to environmental statements and masterplanning for large brownfield regeneration projects.
Helen has recently achieved a MBA.
She counts as a coup her success in achieving planning permission for a major mixed use development on a contentious site in less time than it normally takes to get planning permission for a conservatory.
What will be the key characteristic of specialism in 2050?
“Sustainability at the heart of the planning process and sustainable design in all aspects of our everyday life together with the design of high quality intelligent buildings and spaces which have an environmental conscience.”
