Persimmon site managers raise the bar
Buying a new home is the single largest purchase you’ll make in your lifetime so quality and attention to detail is a must. Fortunately house hunters across the West Midlands can be assured of exactly that following the news that two Persimmon Homes site managers have scooped a national award for excellence.
Wayne Berry from Penn, Wolverhampton and Craig Thomas from Newport, who work at Chenet Park in Cannock and The Keep in Darlaston respectively, have both scooped a much coveted Pride in the Job award from the National House Building Council (NHBC).
Collectively, this is the sixth time the duo have won a Pride in the Job award, an accolade established to reward quality management and raise the standard of service to homebuyers. Couple that with two NHBC ‘seals of excellence’ and it‘s not difficult to see why their sites are so popular with the buying public. Mark Penn, Persimmon’s regional construction director, said: “It’s fantastic that the NHBC has again commended Wayne and Craig. I’m extremely proud of what they have achieved, which has been made possible due to their first-class organisational skills, knowledge and support of their team.
“This award not only reflects the hard work they have all put in on site but gives our buyers added assurance that they are buying a superior high quality home from us.”
The NHBC awards are judged externally from a total of 17,000 construction sites in the UK and the 'Pride in the Job' award is only given to the top 400 site managers, rewarding the top three per cent those who demonstrate an outstanding commitment to the highest quality workmanship.
For over a year, NHBC inspectors have made spot check visits at Chenet Park in Cannock and The Keep in Darlaston to assess each site manager’s performance at key stages of construction, from foundations to the finished product, focusing on all the day-to-day workings of the development.
