Kingswood appoints experienced construction director

Preston-based housebuilder Kingswood Homes has recruited Stuart Bullough as construction director.

Stuart previously worked for ten years at Redrow, where he was most recently construction manager overseeing the company’s Lancashire division.

Kingswood announces the appointment as construction begins at its 102-home Market Quarter at Hatherleigh development in Devon and 38-home The Hollies scheme in Forton, Lancashire.

The company is also continuing developing the current phase of its 167-home Green Hills scheme in Blackburn and is planning to begin another Lancashire development in Elswick on the Fylde coast by the end of the year.

Paul Jones, managing director of Kingswood Homes, said: “Attracting talent of Stuart’s calibre is a real coup for Kingswood and demonstrates the progress we are making in becoming a medium-sized housebuilder.

“Stuart is a multi-award-winning, motivational construction director and has vast experience of quality volume developments and a range of skills which will be invaluable on our growth journey and beneficial to our entire team.”

Stuart added: “This is a great opportunity to join Kingswood Homes as it begins the next phase of its growth and it is refreshing to be part of such a dynamic, driven company which puts the emphasis on delivering individuality and quality for its customers."
