Housebuilding group, Edenstone, has announced a raft of senior promotions as it expands its presence across the South West of England.

The Group has announced four senior promotions at its Portishead Marina office.

James Morgan steps up from his role as Senior Land Manager to become Land Director (Southern), with solicitor, and legal director, Helen Thomas picking up a newly created role as Group Legal Director. Planner, Katie Peters is elevated to Strategic and Southern Planning Director and Bill Hughes becomes Head of Design (Homes).

Edenstone which, next year, celebrates its 20th anniversary is on target to achieve turnover in excess of £100 million with the south west region delivering key growth.

Group Chairman Martin Taylor said: “We have enjoyed excellent growth in the last few years. Despite the pandemic, favourable market conditions have prevailed but we have been delighted with the performance of our team and this latest round of promotions recognises the individual and collective commitment and capability shown.

“We hope to have our first development on site in the south west in the autumn, at Sampford Peverell in Devon, with a second scheme, this time in Somerset, following quickly on. We are also actively pursuing a range of other opportunities across the region and are confident that we will quickly become a well-known name in the region.”
