A Northamptonshire site manager has taken home his third acclaimed housebuilder award.
Steve Beck, 54, who works for Bellway Northern Home Counties, won the National House Building Council (NHBC) Pride in the Job Quality Award for his work at Hanwood Park in Kettering.
He’s one of just 443 site managers out of 8,000 across the UK who won the award this year and will now go forward to the Seal of Excellence stage of judging.
This is Steve’s third Pride in the Job award – alongside a Seal of Excellence – since he started working for Bellway in 2014.
Steve, who lives in Northampton, said: “The key to winning a Quality Award is the attitude of your team and I have a great team who always strive for high standards.
“I consistently encourage a happy site with hard workers. Winning awards is always special as they aren’t easy to get but ultimately, a happy customer is the best reward I could receive.”
The site manager began his career in the construction industry in 1988 as a ground worker before building his way up to site manager in 2004.
He took responsibility for Hanwood Park in April 2020, a couple of months after work on the site began.
Steve said: “This is a great development with a variety of high-quality homes. This, alongside the hardworking nature of the team, is what landed us this award.”
Iain Hunter, Construction Director for Bellway Northern Home Counties, said: “For our site managers, winning an NHBC award in any year is rewarding, but this year has been a special achievement in such challenging circumstances, ensuring our building sites are kept to the highest standards we set ourselves at Bellway, and keeping our customers and residents happy with the work we are doing across those sites.
“Steve has consistently demonstrated his excellence in delivering new homes to our customers over the past 12 months and Bellway is extremely proud of and grateful for his efforts, resulting in the Quality Award he has been deservingly given by the NHBC. We would like to wish Steve all the very best for the next stage of the NHBC awards this year, as he progresses to the Seal of Excellence phase of judging.”
