Pride in the Job success for East Kilbride site managers
Michael Hastings
Michael Hastings, site manager at Barratt Homes’ Jackton Hall development and Jim Maclennan, site manager for David Wilson Homes at Eaglesham View, have both won an award at the National House Building Council (NHBC) Pride in the Job Awards.
Working with Barratt Homes for nine years, Hastings oversaw the construction at Barratt Homes’ sold-out Jackton Hall development.
Working with David Wilson Homes for five months, Maclennan oversees the build of luxury homes at Eaglesham View in Jackton, East Kilbride.
The two are among a select group of site managers nationwide to receive the award following a judging process which involves thousands of inspections.
The award celebrates outstanding standards in site management, leadership and build quality.
Hastings, site manager at Barratt Homes at Jackton Hall, said: “Pride in the Job is one of the most respected recognitions in our industry, so to be named among the country’s top site managers is a real honour.
“Delivering high-quality homes requires a relentless focus on standards, attention to detail and teamwork every day, and this award reflects the commitment of everyone working on site at Jackton Hall.”
Hall added: “We all share the same goal of building homes that our customers can be proud of for years to come.”
The pair’s success also contributed to a strong year for Barratt Homes parent company Barratt Redrow, whose site managers gained 122 Pride in the Job awards – which is greater than any other UK housebuilder.
Jim Maclennan, site manager at David Wilson Homes’ Eaglesham View development, said: “Quality is at the heart of everything we do at Eaglesham View, so it’s fantastic to receive recognition through a Pride in the Job Award.
“We know buying a home is one of the biggest decisions people make, and we take great pride in ensuring every home is built to the highest standards.”
Maclennan added: “To have that commitment recognised by the NHBC is particularly special.”
Andy Curran, managing director of Barratt Homes West Scotland, said: “Michael and Jim’s awards are fantastic achievements and thoroughly deserved.
“The quality of the homes delivered at our Barratt Homes at Jackton Hall and David Wilson Homes at Eaglesham View developments is a direct reflection of the site managers’ commitment to excellence and the high standards they set for everyone on their sites.”
