Turley Strengthens London Planning Team

Turley has announced two new additions to its planning team in London.

The planning and development consultancy has named Christopher Schiele as associate director and Luke Sumnall as assistant planner.

Both men join from GL Hearn.

Christopher specialises in high-density regeneration projects. He brings a wide range of experience working on large-scale residential-led mixed-use developments across London and the South East.

In recent years, Christopher played a key role in the delivery of various complex regeneration schemes with a particular focus on sites around the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.


Luke spent the last two years on a planning graduate scheme. He has worked on a range of mixed-use schemes across London and the South East.

Speaking about the appointments, head of planning London, Ben Wrighton said: "It's a great time to join Turley as we continue to strengthen our reputation and build our offering across the city. The growing number of large-scale mixed-use projects planned and under construction in the capital has led to an increase in demand for trusted advisers which these new members of the team will play a key role in servicing."

Turley's London team is currently engaged on a number of high-profile projects in the region including New Covent Garden Market, Great Ormond Street Hospital and the redevelopment of Whiteleys Shopping Centre.
