Redrow site manager scores national award

By Lancashire Business View

01 Dec 2017

Redrow's site manager Martin Caldwell has been named National Residential Site Agent of the Year at the Grand Finals of the LABC Building Excellence Awards.

Martin, from Lytham, had already secured the North-West accolade of LABC Site Agent of the Year earlier this year for his work at the Ricksby Grange development in Wrea Green.

This latest victory, hotly contested across 10 regions, sees him declared the best in the whole of the country.

He said: “I am absolutely delighted – although the news hasn’t quite sunk in yet. As I sat around the table at the awards ceremony I didn’t think, for one moment, I was going to win. I am only 35 and there was a lot of competition from site managers with many more years’ experience than me."

The LABC (Local Authority Building Control) Awards recognise outstanding working relationships between building companies and their managers with the local authorities and their surveyors; as well as build quality, control on site for technical awareness, good communication and management of safety.

The awards event is one of the most well-known and prestigious within the building industry. At the Grand Finals – attended by more than 800 building professionals - the winners were announced by writer, broadcaster, actor and former conservative MP Gyles Brandreth. Redrow construction director for Lancashire, Keith Collard, added: “Site managers like Martin make sure that the people who buy our homes can have absolute confidence in us from the moment they reserve a house to the minute they put the key into the door – and beyond."
