Miller Homes has revealed nine of its site managers have been recognised at the NHBC's Pride in the Job Awards.

The ceremony acknowledges those site managers who are committed to achieving safe housebuilding standards. Staff are rigorously assessed across 44 areas of site management, including technical knowledge, consistency in the build process and quality controls.

The successful Miller Homes site managers who received Quality Awards in the first round of the competition are as follows:

• Paul Ritchie, Wheatfields, Seaton Delaval

• John Harrison, Portland Wynd, Blyth

• Andrew Halladay, Croston Meadows, Leyland

• Andy Eccles, The Views, Billinge

• Bill Hughes, Fairfield Gardens, Widnes

• Andy Dyson, Brompton Fold, Apperley Bridge

• Shaun Roddis, Lindley Park, Lindley

• Vinnie Morris, Langley Country Park, Derby

• Dan Johnson, Regency Gardens, Southwell

Later this year, the winners of the Quality Awards will take part in the next round of the competition, hoping to achieve a Seal of Excellence Award as well as competing for the regional title.

Regional winners will then go forward to compete for the national Supreme Winner title in their category at the Pride in the Job Gala, taking place in London early next year.

Chris Endsor, Chief Executive of Miller Homes, said: "Building new homes safely and to the highest standards is a key priority for Miller Homes.  We are very proud of all of our site managers who have received this recognition from the industry for their commitment and dedication to achieving these standards day in and day out on their developments."

Neil Jefferson, Managing Director of the NHBC, added: "Congratulations to all the 2017 Quality Award winners – the strength of this year's entries coupled with the judges' long and hard deliberations over selecting around 450 winners from more than 16,000 site managers should give great pride to them all and their teams.

"Every year the NHBC Pride in the Job Awards give us the chance to celebrate the efforts site managers go to promoting continuous improvement in the quality of new homes, year on year, for homeowners and their families to enjoy."
