Inland Homes has appointed managing director Gary John Skinner to the board of directors with immediate effect.
Skinner joined the brownfield regeneration specialist and housebuilder as managing director in February 2016 and has been responsible for delivering construction partnerships and joint venture developments, as well as overseeing the health and safety standards, HR and customer services for the company.
He was formerly an operations director at Willmott Dixon Housing, a privately owned contracting and interior fit-out group, where he was responsible for the sourcing, planning and commercial delivery of up to 1,000 units per year.
Prior to this, he was a production director at George Wimpey, a housing and land developer now part of Taylor Wimpey, where he was involved in the land purchase assessments and timely delivery of the sites by providing advice on the build methodologies, potential construction implications and environmental and safety issues.
Stephen Wicks, chief executive at Inland Homes, said: “Since joining Inland Homes, Gary has had a tremendous impact on the company and has been an integral part of our growth from 31 to 101 people in the past 26 months, having led the formation and expansion of our construction business.
“Housebuilding and, increasingly, the development of homes in partnership with local authorities and housing associations are core pillars of our strategy as we seek to diversify and grow our income streams, and Gary’s appointment to the board reflects that.”
