Shaun Sumner, from Hindley, near Wigan, has been appointed by Anwyl Homes Lancashire as construction director.

Shaun, who has worked in the construction industry for more than 35 years, has been a construction director for almost 20 years and brings with him considerable experience and knowledge.

In his new role at Anwyl, Shaun will ensure that each and every home is built to the highest quality standards, that all active sites are safe and healthy places to work, that developments are delivered on time and in budget and that customers receive excellent levels of service at all times. 

Shaun will be responsible for the Lancashire and Merseyside regions.  He has ambitious aims to further develop Anwyl’s reputation in these areas, highlighting the quality of the homes that they build supported by an unrivalled customer service experience.   

Utilising his connections from within the industry and working with sub-contractors who share the same ethos for quality craftsmanship, Shaun will help to build the brand, enabling the company to attract additional high calibre staff and sub-contractors as the business grows in this region.

Attracted to Anwyl due to its exceptional reputation and for the quality of its product, Shaun was also impressed with the manner in which the company treat its staff and does business with its supply chain.

He comments: “Anwyl is a highly regarded housebuilder with an enviable reputation and I am thrilled with my appointment as construction director.  It really is an exciting opportunity to join Anwyl Homes Lancashire at this stage, with the first five developments underway and so much scope for expansion in the coming years.”

John Grime, managing director at Anwyl Homes Lancashire, adds: “Shaun is without doubt an asset to the company and I am looking forward to working with him to build the Anwyl brand in both Lancashire and Merseyside. 

“His expertise and knowledge of the area will ensure our sites are constructed in an exacting manner, allowing the team to deliver our award-winning product on time and enabling growth across the region.”

Away from work, Shaun plays the guitar, likes to watch live music and enjoys cycling.  He is married with two children. 

Anwyl Homes Lancashire is part of the award winning Anwyl Group which has been established for more than 85 years and has three divisions; Anwyl Homes, Anwyl Construction and Anwyl Land.  The family-run business is renowned for its thoughtful approach, bringing care and integrity to all aspects of every project in order to exceed expectations and ensure complete satisfaction for customers.
