THE site manager of Taylor Wimpey West Scotland’s Castle Gate housing development in Maidenhill has been announced as an award winner at the National House Building Council’s (NHBC) Pride in the Job Awards 2024.
David McClure success at this year’s event also included a top-ten Seal of Excellence Award, while his colleague Stuart Gillespie picked up a top-ten place for his work at Taylor Wimpey’s Oakwood View development in Hamilton.
Success at last week’s event topped off a record ten individual Pride in the Job awards for Taylor Wimpey’s site managers in Scotland in this year’s competition.
Brian Henderson, production director at Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, commented, “Achieving and maintaining the highest levels of quality and customer service is very important to our business, and we are delighted and very proud that David McClure’s exemplary record of years of quality and consistency has been recognised by the NHBC in these prestigious awards this year.
“David’s success reflects our drive to deliver the highest quality, service and commitment to our customers, and winning the top Regional Award assures homebuyers that the homes at Castle Gate continue to be of the highest quality. We’re equally delighted that Stuart Gillespie has continued his award-winning standards since he joined our team earlier this year with a top ten Seal of Excellence Award. The event was also a great opportunity to celebrate the achievements of all ten of Taylor Wimpey’s site managers in Scotland who achieved Quality Awards earlier this year, including a record seven in West Scotland alone.”
David McClure, site manager at Castle Gate, added, “Winning this award is a huge honour and something I’ve been striving towards for many years. Along with my team at Castle Gate in Maidenhill, I am passionate about delivering homes of the highest quality, and I’m delighted that the NHBC has acknowledged our consistent efforts. I’m looking forward to the next round of the competition when the regional winners will be judged in the Pride in the Job Supreme Awards.”
Steve Wood, CEO at NHBC, congratulated the winners. He said, “For more than four decades, Pride in the Job has underpinned NHBC’s purpose of raising standards in house building. The competition recognises the UK’s top site managers, showcasing best practice and rewarding excellence. Taylor Wimpey West Scotland’s winning site manager, David McClure, demonstrated his dedication, passion and leadership to ensure new homes are delivered to exacting construction quality standards.”
