The former chief investment officer and interim chief executive of Homes England has been appointed as a senior strategy adviser at Housing Growth Partnership.
Gordon More will advise HGP and its partners on strategy and support its expansion across the living sectors.
More has previously held senior roles at Lloyds Bank and Bank of Scotland. He currently holds a number of board and committee roles spanning the residential and housing sectors, including non-executive director at Hyde Housing, Sigma Capital and Kingswood Homes and senior adviser at JLL.
Vic Hepburn, chief executive at HGP, said: “Gordon’s previous roles and continued executive support to businesses in the sector means he is ideally placed to work with HGP as we look to increase our equity investment into the living sectors while delivering great outcomes for local communities. He understands both the market need and the challenges that stand in the way.”
More added: “Enabling SME housebuilders to expand and accelerate their pipeline underpins the HGP model and is vital if we are to create a more robust and resilient housing market.
“The current environment for delivering new homes remains highly challenging, whether its regulatory, planning, financing, labour or raw material pressures, which is where HGP’s unique senior advisory panel can make a real difference.”
