“It’s all about being able to shape your environment for the better” We have a team of passionate, proactive and highly skilled planners at Carter Jonas who have all taken their own paths to find themselves in our industry today. But what or who has been their motivation? This issue we take a closer look at what influenced Carter Jonas Associate Peter McKeown. When I was growing up in Northern Ireland during the 1980s and 1990s, my uncle was the Chief Executive of the Planning Service in Northern Ireland. His job fascinated me despite not initially knowing what he spent his days doing. I was interested in the projects he was involved in and how he had such an influence over shaping our environment. There were certainly some anomalies in planning for me; I didn’t realise how complex the built environment could be. I grew up on a farm so I loved being outdoors in the open space and felt passionate about the lie of the land. My curiosity continued into my teens and I carried out a two week work experience placement at my local Planning Service office when I was 17. There was no going back from there and I studied Environmental Planning at Queens University in Belfast. Following this, I joined the WYG Group as a Graduate Planner in Belfast before relocating to Cambridge. “I didn’t realise how complex the built environment could be...” Who knows if I would have made it to where I am today without the influence of my uncle. His constant fascination with the built environment and his dedication to his role definitely had a lasting impression on me. 14
