CAREER GROWTH AT JSA

LUKE WYMER

Executive Director

"Since I first joined the company as an intern in 2016, while completing my Masters in Regional and Urban Planning, JSA has been a dynamic and supportive place to work. I have been given the opportunity to work on a wide range of significant projects across a variety of sectors, from residential to renewable energy, while also being encouraged to pursue further studies and get involved with professional bodies and the planning institutes. I believe this support and the strong and highly professional team in JSA have allowed me to grow faster and more consistently than I would have in any other planning role. The depth of experience and willingness to share knowledge amongst colleagues in JSA is unparalleled, and benefits everyone in the company."
