Steve Damerell, Site Manager for Meadowbrook in Callington has been given special recognition from the National House Building Council (NHBC), winning a Pride in the Job Quality award for Southwest Housebuilder Baker Estates.
From a field of more than 10,000, over 400 UK site managers have won a Quality Award in the first round of NHBC’s Pride in the Job Awards 2023, representing the top five per cent of those who entered.
Steve said: “It’s very satisfying to be recognised by NHBC. I take an enormous amount of pride in every site I work on and see this as very much a team award.”
Ian Baker, Managing Director at Baker Estates, said: “We are delighted that Steve Damerell has been selected as a Pride in the Job Quality Award winner for his commitment to quality and impeccable site management.
“I am sure Steve would want me to thank every single member of the Baker Estates team for their contribution, as without the teamwork and commitment these awards would not have been possible.
“Pride in the Job Quality Awards say a great deal about what we are trying to achieve at Baker Estates and the ongoing progress we are making.
“Being selected as one of the UK’s top site managers is a testament to their commitment to delivering quality homes for our customers. Pride in the Job is the most highly regarded competition in the house-building industry.”
Judging for the Awards is rigorous, with each site manager assessed across six key areas including consistency, attention to detail, leadership, interpretation of drawings and specifications, technical expertise, and health and safety.
