Testimonial provided by past employee: 

“Having moved to Australia from Ireland in early 2024, I spent five months working at Barr Planning to continue my career as a town planner. Based in their Newcastle office led by Stephen Barr and Rebecca Johnston, I experienced a positive culture that is apparent across the whole team in both Sydney and Newcastle, regardless of experience or position. You can always ask questions and you will always get helpful advice.

Steve and Rebecca went above and beyond in ensuring my time spent living and working in Newcastle was an enjoyable one. Overall, Barr Planning is a great place to work, and I gained valuable knowledge into the New South Wales Planning System.”
