Guy joined Cassidy + Ashton in 2009 and is the Planning lead for the Cheshire and North Wales offices. Having been Chartered for over 20-years, Guy prides himself in being able to provide the client with clear practical advice, at a time when the Planning process is becoming ever more complex and not something to be entered into lightly.

Following a Masters in Environmental Planning from LJM University, he cut his teeth in the Professional Services Division of a commercial and residential agency on the south coast. In 2004 he moved to Cheshire to take on a lead role in the western region Planning team of a national firm of property consultants.

Working on projects of varying scale and complexity, covering all market sectors and for both private and public clients, his role as Lead Planner sees him prepare all necessary supporting planning documentation, inclusive of Environmental Statements and manage an extensive range of sub-consultants.

With a solid understanding of urban design and experienced in the masterplanning process for major sites, Guy is also well versed in the strategic promotion of land through the Development Plan process. This work includes sustainability analysis, written representations and appearance at Examination and subsequent application process.

Away from the office Guy enjoys the occasional round of golf, 5-a-side football and running (with no aspirations to run a marathon!). Guy has been a school Governor since 2010 (Malpas Alport Primary School).
