72 Site Manager awards

Two of our Devon-based Site Managers are celebrating after receiving a prestigious NHBC (National House-Building Council) Pride in the Job Quality award. These two award winners are Adam Swinhoe, Site Manager at the Sherford development in Plymouth, and Nick Vigar, Site Manager at the Buckingham Heights development in Exmouth. Out of 10,000 Site Managers from around the UK, Adam and Nick are two of 450 who have been recognised for their dedication to building high quality homes.

With 72 of our Site Managers recognised for their achievements in 2021, we have more award winning Site Managers per development than any other major national homebuilder.*

Adam Swinhoe said: “Winning the Pride In The Job Quality Award is a special moment for me and my team. It Is something I have been wanting for a number of years and finally winning one is the proudest moment of my career to date. The whole experience has been really beneficial to the team and something we will never forget and be extremely keen to repeat in future years.

 Nick Vigar said: “Winning a Pride in the Job Quality Award is an honour not just for me, but for the whole team. They all work incredibly hard and take great pride in ensuring that the homes we build are completed to the best possible standards. We always try to consistently deliver the same standard and actively encourage all the trades to be proud of their work. To be recognised and rewarded is a fantastic achievement for everyone involved at Buckingham Heights.”

 Steve Wood, NHBC Chief Executive, said: “Pride in the Job has been pivotal in improving the quality of new homes for more than 40 years. Despite the numerous challenges the industry has faced, the very best site managers of 2021 have remained focused on delivering high quality new homes for their customers.”

 Pride in the Job is the only UK-wide awards scheme that recognises the significant contribution of Site Managers who achieve the highest standards in new home construction. For further information click here
