The Homes and Communities Agency has announced a number of senior appointments to lead on the delivery of its investment and land programmes.
The HCA said it was establishing a new operating model with streamlined management tiers to enable it to speed up delivery and promote new approaches to housebuilding.
The new general managers are:
- Housing programmes: Jackie Jacob
- Land: Ian Piper
- Large priority projects: Terry Fuller
- East and South East: Paul Kitson
- Midlands: Karl Tupling
- North East, Yorkshire and the Humber: Rob Pearson
- North West: Danielle Gillespie
- South West: Kevin Bourner
Mark Hodgkinson, chief executive of the HCA, said: “The HCA is leading the government’s drive to increase the speed of housebuilding and to promote new approaches to delivery. We have a strong track record of delivery, but much more needs to be done to increase the rate of construction through a whole series of measures, including encouraging new entrants and methods of construction.
“We are putting in place a new operating model as part of a business transformation programme. The new senior appointments will be responsible for many of our high-profile investment and land programmes. They will lead flexible, expert teams that work with partners from across the industry to deliver more homes for people to own or rent.”
