Bancon Group has completed its new senior management team with the appointment of Allan Clow as group finance director.

Mr Clow joins from CHAP Holdings, where he also held the role of group finance director, and replaces David Cassidy who has retired after 12 years with the independent Aberdeenshire housebuilder and construction group.

Mr Clow previously worked in similar roles for Superglass Holdings Plc and Havelock Europa.



He holds Chartered Director status from Napier University and was a former member of the board of Perth College within the University of the Highlands and Islands.

John Irvine, chief executive of Bancon Group, said: “As part of our ambitious growth plans for the next five years, we have been strengthening our senior management team. This has included my own appointment last year, the appointment of Gavin Currie and Philip Hogg as Managing Directors of the construction and homes businesses respectively.

“His experience in successfully supporting sustained growth within a number of sectors will be invaluable to us.”

Bancon Group recently reported robust results with turnover rising by £5 million to £83.5m. The group operates in housebuilding, property development, construction, property maintenance and timberframe manufacturing.



Commenting on Mr Cassidy’s retirement, Mr Irvine said: “During his time with Bancon, David has been a great ambassador for the group and we wish him well for the future.”

With a strong heritage in the North-east, Bancon Group’s current projects include high profile homes sites Aspire and Maidenraig in Aberdeen and, in construction, the city’s Mile End school refurbishment and conversion.

Last month Homes for Scotland has announced that chief executive Philip Hogg is to leave the organisation to become managing director of Bancon Group’s homes business.
