Less than 12 months after joining the company, Mark Hughes is now head of construction across the southwest region.
He is now responsible for build quality at Barratt David Wilson Homes’ sites across Somerset, South Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. He will also play a role in developing the company’s new house type range to include enhanced fabric, efficient services, heat recovery systems, and photovoltaics (solar panels) to comply with the new Part L Building Regulations, which set the standard for energy performance and carbon emissions in new homes.
He started his career with Linden Homes (now Vistry) and has subsequently worked for Redrow Homes, McCarthy & Stone, David Wilson Homes Southern and St Modwen Homes.
