Miller Homes, a homebuilder building across a number of developments in Lancashire, has today announced the appointments of five new employees to its Commercial and Land teams. 

The new hires to its Commercial team are Mike Lees (pictured top), who joins the team as a surveyor, having previously worked at Blueoak Estates. Additionally, David Hitchen begins as a senior surveyor, bringing a wealth of experience from his time at Wainhomes. Steve Nijs, a previous employee of GRS for 25 years, joins him as a senior surveyor / estimator. 

 

Joining the Land team is James Hampson (pictured above), Miller’s newly appointed land manager, and Chris Twigg (pictured below) as land buyer. The homebuilder is supporting Chris as he continues his studies alongside his new role, pursuing a degree at Salford University in Real Estate Asset Management.

 

The hires come after a successful 2021 for Miller Homes, which enjoyed strong launches at its new North West developments in Halewood, Cliviger, Prescot and Clitheroe. The growth of the company is a welcome sign and suggests continuing prosperity in the North West throughout 2022, when its Varsity Quarter development in Manchester and Eston View development in Wigan are due to launch. 

Ian Smith, managing director of Miller Homes in the North West, said: “We’re delighted to welcome these new additions to our team in the Commercial and Land departments as the business continues to grow nationally and regionally. A very warm welcome all to our new members of staff – I wish them the best of luck in their new roles.”
