Background

About Philip Kinlay

I am a highly motivated and self-driven individual with an interest in property development and urban planning. I have a Joint Honours Bachelor’s Degree from Maynooth University in Psychology & Sociology. I have a Master’s Degree from Queen's University, Belfast where I completed an MSc in Planning & Development. My dissertation for this course was undertaken in the form of a work-based study where I worked closely with a client to produce a regeneration strategy for the town of Mountmellick, located in County Laois. I now work within a private planning consultancy in Dublin, Ireland. I joined Brock McClure in 2021, following my Master’s Degree at Queen’s University, Belfast. My background in Social Sciences has led to a particular interest in the interaction between humans and the built environment. Following my knowledge of the UK planning system, I have gained valuable experience in the Irish planning system through extensive work with clients on projects such as Strategic Housing Development (SHD), Large-scale Residential Development (LRD), planning appeals, project management and commercial applications. I am a Licentiate Member of the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) as well as a Graduate Member of the Irish Planning Institute (IPI).
