Site bosses hailed for leadership and results
Two site managers from housing association and house builder Curo have received the National House Building Council’s 2021 Pride in the Job Quality Award.
Alan Mapston, senior site manager at Mulberry Park in Bath, and Lee Watts, senior site manager at Woodland View at Hygge Park in Keynsham, were recognised for their dedication, leadership and the high standards achieved at their respective developments.
The ‘Oscars of the house-building industry,’ the Pride in the Job Awards celebrate the vital role that site managers play in ensuring new homes are constructed on time, on safe sites and to the highest quality standards. The competition endorses the best site managers across the country following a rigorous and lengthy judging process that looks at areas such as leadership, technical expertise, health and safety and attention to detail.
Married father-of-two Alan said: “I’m very pleased to have won this award for our Mulberry Park site.
“Building homes of such high quality in a safe, timely and costeffective way is certainly a team effort and I work alongside some fantastic people here at Mulberry Park, from my two assistant site managers, Grant Wells and Lee Clarke, to our trusted contractors.
“Our focus is always on building beautiful, high quality homes for our customers and I think the award recognises this.”
This is Lee’s second Pride in the Job Award, having won his first in 2013. He said: “I’m proud of our Woodland View development where our customer satisfaction rate is 100 per cent. This is a true reflection of how we build our homes, our focus on quality and attention to detail.
“I’m delighted with this recognition, not just for myself but for the entire team here at Woodland View who are working hard to make our customers happy - our contractors, labourers and my assistant site manager Steve Weymouth.”
