- Barratt Developments win 96 NHBC Pride in the Job Quality Awards
- 96 awards is more than any other housebuilder, for 19 years in a row
Barratt Development site managers have won 96 NHBC Pride in the Job Quality Awards, marking them down as among the very best in the country. The awards are known as the ‘Oscars of the housebuilding industry’.
The awards celebrate the vital role site managers play in ensuring new homes are delivered on-time, on safe sites, and to the highest quality standards. They rate site managers against key criteria such as technical expertise, health and safety, consistency, leadership and attention to detail.
In total Barratt site managers have won 96 Pride in the Job Quality Awards, which is more than any other housebuilder. This is the 19th year in a row that site managers from Barratt have won more of these awards than any other housebuilder. This achievement underlines just how important Barratt sees building high quality homes and its long-term commitment to being the best in the industry.
Every site manager who is registered with the NHBC is automatically entered into the awards, with just 450 winners being selected from over 11,000 entrants, showing how difficult they are to win.
These awards follow on from Barratt site manager Kirk Raine being named as the Supreme winner of last year’s NHBC Pride in the Job Quality Awards. In January Kirk was named as the Supreme winner in the Large Builder Category for his work managing The Grove at Doseley Park, near Telford. This is the sixth time that a Barratt site manager has won the Supreme award in the past eight years.
Steven Boyes, chief operating officer at Barratt Developments, said: “It is great news for our customers and the business as a whole that we have won 96 Pride in the Job Quality Awards. The awards showcase what it takes to be a top site manager and to win so many shows our long-term commitment to looking after our customers and building high quality homes. We are very proud to have won more of these awards than any other housebuilder for 19 years in a row now.”
These awards closely follow Barratt Developments being awarded 5 stars by its customers for satisfaction in the annual Home Builders Federation (HBF) new homes survey. To be rated 5 star means that more than 90% of its customers would recommend one of its homes to a friend, with Barratt being the only major national housebuilder to be rated 5 star for 14 years in a row.
