Jason Hunt is an Associate and Senior Planner at Statewest Planning. He commenced here in January 2018 arriving from a private property development company where he worked as their in house Planning Professional for 7 years.

Prior to that Jason managed wine and hospitality businesses with multiple venues in both Perth and the South West. This experience also included the opening of new venues and engagement with regulatory authorities at both Local and State levels through this process.

Jason’s experience is in residential and commercial land development having been involved in multiple projects from initial client purchase through to delivery of titles to sales agents.

In 1978, Brian Hunt established a Town Planning & Surveying business at 69 Great Northern Hwy, Midland. Shortly after that the business was re-branded Hunt and Rogers – Surveyors and Planners. In the mid 1990’s the business was again re-branded, as Statewest Surveying and Planning, reflecting the wider geographical range covered by the business.

In 1997 Simon O’Hara joined the company to expand the Planning capability at a time when property development was growing. The business grew, as the industry did, to four Planners and a team of Surveyors.

Simon became an owner in 2007 as Brian stepped back, reduced his workload and responsibilities, and freed up time to pursue other interests.

In 2012 the Surveying and Town Planning branches of that business separated as the property development industry grappled with rapidly changing policies and practices from Government Agencies that increased the distinction between the two professions. The Town Planning component was re-branded as Statewest Planning.

In mid-2024 Statewest Planning relocated to new premises in the heart of old Midland at 52 Helena St maintaining its almost 50 year connection with the eastern region and still servicing the whole of WA.
