Out of 11,000 entries across the UK, the housebuilder’s Scottish NHBC (National House Building Council) Pride in the Job Quality Award 2020 winners are: Eddie McCann (Calderwood, East Calder); Graham Spence (Victoria Grange, Monifieth); Barry Watson (Spencer Fields, Inverkeithing) and Gavin Bianchi (Taylor Wimpey at Heartlands).

The award recognises an individual’s dedication to building high-quality homes for new homebuyers, and they are presented following a rigorous judging process by NHBC inspectors. This includes assessing the developments throughout the year, as well as spot checks, which gives homebuyers the assurance that award-winning developments provide top-quality homes and excellent customer service.

Tommy Stirling, production director for Taylor Wimpey East Scotland, said: “We are really proud to acknowledge that we have some of the best site managers in Scotland, and we are delighted to learn that four of our site managers in east of Scotland have received Quality Awards in this year’s NHBC’s Pride in the Job campaign. It’s fantastic news and recognises our drive to deliver the highest levels of quality, service and customer care for our customers right across our local area.”

Gavin Hamilton, managing director for Taylor Wimpey East Scotland, added: “We are committed to maintaining the highest levels of quality and customer service, and this recognition has ensured that we continue to be an NHBC award-winning housebuilder year after year.

“While three of our site managers - Barry, Eddie and Graham - have won many previous Pride in the Job Awards, including the last three years in a row, we’re delighted to see Gavin Bianchi scoop his first quality award for his hard work and determination at our Heartlands development, near Whitburn.

“Competition for an NHBC Quality Award continues to be tough, and this year’s awards are thoroughly deserved by all four site managers in recognition of an impressive team effort at our developments across the east of Scotland.”

Each of the winning site managers will go forward to the next stage of the competition, which ultimately aims to find the UK’s Supreme winners of the Pride in the Job Awards.
