Looking for a php script that will allow a user to sign up with details then create a directory + ftp username for them with permissions only on the folder created, is there anything that does this?
 
What access do they need to the folder? To just upload and read files?

Just do a mkdir and create a page where they can view all files / download files in their directory which they have permission to. Very simple.

There are Scripts which will let you create FTP accounts but it depends if you really need this person access via FTP. You can just get a script which will be like the cPanel File Manager.

I have done this sort of thing before, allowing people to create their own forums but creating a subdomain for each new account and install the phpBB Database / Files.
 
You'll probably need to use CURL to interact with your host's control panel and to create the new FTP account.
