Mark White, Managing Director of Bargate, said: “Being welcomed onto the HBF Board is a proud moment and a privilege of my 30-year career in housebuilding. SMEs are so vital to the health, diversity, and prosperity of the industry, and by working alongside fellow HBF Directors, the specific challenges can be amplified and tackled. Navigating the complexities of the UK’s new homes sector relies on a supportive culture, which the HBF is so brilliant at being at the forefront of.”
Greg Hill, deputy chief executive, The Hill Group, commented: “I’m honoured to join the HBF at such a pivotal time for our industry. With an ambitious agenda at the heart of government to deliver the step change in delivery of sustainable new homes that are so desperately needed, the role of the HBF is as critical as ever. I look forward to working alongside my fellow board members to make sure the voices of all housebuilders, large or small, are heard. Together, we can help shape policies that foster innovation, drive sustainability, and support the delivery of much-needed homes to the communities across the country.”
