Construction News Image

Housebuilder Bellway is marking its most successful year to date in the National House Building Council's (NHBC) Pride in the Job Quality Awards.

A total of 47 Bellway site managers were recognised in this year’s scheme, accounting for more than 10 per cent of all winners nationally and highlighting the company’s performance in delivering build quality across its developments.

Overall, 95 per cent of Bellway’s divisions had site managers who met the stringent standards required by the awards, an increase of 15 per cent compared with previous years. The company also recorded the second highest number of award wins nationally.

This year's competition saw just 449 site managers selected from a field of more than 7,500 entrants across the UK. The results were announced on Friday 19 June.

James Griffin, Bellway Group Construction Director, said: "We have made huge progress this year, with a 15 per cent increase in the number of divisions winning Quality Awards, as our 'right first time' quality culture continues to go from strength to strength.

"As a company we have targeted the Pride in the Job Awards as part of our strategic focus on quality, with best practice and expertise shared across the business, and this has helped us achieve five-star builder status with the Home Builders Federation for the 10th year running, as well as an excellent rating on Trustpilot for the first time this year.

"Congratulations to our successful site managers, who have all shown absolute dedication to meeting the rigorous standards required by the NHBC judges and have also inspired their site teams to share the Pride in the Job ethos, which is vital to achieve this award.

"They have been part of helping to create a culture in which our construction teams consistently build homes they would be proud to call their own. We hope their continued commitment to excellence will enable them to achieve even greater success in the next stage of the competition."
