Three Staffordshire Site Managers from David Wilson Homes have won a top national award for the quality of the homes they are building.

Paul Moore, Oliver Wardlaw, and Alex Price have won these prestigious awards for their work onsite, marking them down as the best in the UK.

Known as the “Oscars of the homebuilding industry”, the National House Building Council (NHBC) Pride in The Job Quality awards recognise the finest Site Managers from around the country.

Paul is the Site Manager at Hallam Park on Limburg Road in Lichfield, whilst Oliver is the Site Manager at its sister site, Darwin View. Alex is a Site Manager based at Bentley Fields in Uttoxeter.

Paul has been with David Wilson Homes for nine years and is celebrating his fifth Pride in the Job award, and tenth award from the NHBC. Having overseen Hallam Park from its conception to almost completion, he is proud to have won the industry’s top accolades again. He commented, “Winning the award is the best feeling, and it’s great to receive recognition from the NHBC. But it’s not just good for me, it’s recognition for everyone involved.

“The site has been a joy to work at, and we’ve done really well to get ourselves nine months ahead of schedule in terms of finishing. It’s a great way to close the book on Hallam Park, and I have to thank everyone involved.”

Oliver has been with David Wilson Homes for five years, and is celebrating his second year as a Site Manager by winning his second Pride in the Job Quality award. He said: “It feels great to win the award and be added into the mix of other Site Managers that we all look up to.

“I like working at Darwin View, and it’s great to have an excellent team behind me. My favourite part is building good quality homes and handing them over to the customer. But I can’t do it by myself, so I want to thank the whole team and construction team on site.”

Alex has been with the homebuilder for 14 years, during which he has received four Pride in the Job awards from the NHBC for his team’s high quality work.

In total David Wilson Site Managers won 93 Pride in the Job Quality awards this year. This is the 17th year in a row that parent company Barratt Developments has won more Pride in the Job Quality awards than any other homebuilder, showing its long-term commitment to building high quality homes.

These awards, now in their 41st year, rate Site Managers against key criteria such as technical expertise, health and safety, consistency, leadership and attention to detail. The awards celebrate the vital role Site Managers play in ensuring new homes are delivered on-time, on safe sites, and to the highest quality standards.

Every Site Manager who is registered with the NHBC is automatically entered into the awards, with just 450 winners being selected from 11,000 entrants, showing how difficult they are to win.

These awards come off the back of a David Wilson Homes Site Manager being crowned the overall winner in last year’s awards. Kirk Raine, Senior Site Manager, won the supreme award, the fifth time in the last six years that a Barratt Site Manager has won the top prize.

Dominic Harman Managing Director from David Wilson Homes Mercia, said: “These awards showcase only the best new homes and well-run sites. By winning so many awards it demonstrates that we are building some of the highest quality homes in the country. It also shows the long-term commitment we have to looking after our customers and making them happy. No other homebuilder can match our record at the NHBC Pride in the Job Quality awards.”

There awards closely follow Barratt Developments being awarded five stars by its customers for satisfaction in the annual Home Builders Federation (HBF) new homes survey. To be rated five star means that more than 90% of its customers would recommend one of its homes to a friend, with Barratt being the only major national homebuilder to be rated five star for 12 years in a row.
