ROBERTSON Homes site managers in Bo’ness and East Calder have been recognised as being among the best in the UK after winning a top housing industry award for the second consecutive year.
Greig Donaldson, who works for Robertson Homes at its Almondell development in East Calder, West Lothian, and Eddie McCann, who manages the Meadowside development in Bo’ness are celebrating their Pride in the Job 2026 Quality Awards from NHBC.
Now in its 46th year and widely considered the ‘Oscars of the house-building industry’, Pride in the Job celebrates site managers’ dedication to raising standards in house building, showcasing best practice and rewarding excellence.
Judging is rigorous, with assessment across six key areas – consistency, attention to detail, leadership, interpretation of drawings and specifications, technical expertise, and health and safety. Thousands of inspections have taken place to determine the 449 winners from a field of circa 7,500 sites, representing the top 6% of UK site managers.
John Murphy, Robertson Homes MD, said, “We are immensely proud of Greig and Eddie and our construction teams at both East Calder and Bo’ness. To win these awards in consecutive years is testament to their consistency of excellence in housebuilding.
“Building homes to the highest quality standards, in a respectful and considerate manner is at the heart of everything we do at Robertson Homes and for our site managers to be recognised by the NHBC gives our customers confidence to know their new homes are being constructed by such a committed and dedicated team.”
Commenting on the awards, Cassandra Codling, senior regional director at NHBC, added, “Congratulations to Greig and Eddie who have demonstrated incredible dedication, passion, commitment and leadership to produce homes of exceptional quality. The judges look for site managers who go beyond strong performance and demonstrate qualities that lift a good site manager to an exceptional one.
“The competition is at the heart of NHBC’s core purpose to raise standards in house building. It inspires site managers to make their mark on the industry, earning the respect of their peers and leaving a legacy of homes built to the highest quality standards.”
Pride in the Job has five categories – small, medium and large builders, plus multi-storey for projects up to seven storeys and high-rise for projects more than seven storeys.
Eddie and Greig will now go on to compete for Seal of Excellence and Regional Awards in the autumn, with the national Supreme Award winners unveiled in January 2027.
