“Over the past few years the West Midlands and Southwest has seen significant successes and has grown to become one of Keepmoat’s flagship regions,” said Ben Leather. “I have a strong track record sourcing and securing new land opportunities and I look forward to bringing my expertise from previous roles as both land director and managing director.

“Keepmoat’s vision is to build communities and transform lives, and its sustainability activity contributes towards the delivery of this ambition. I strive towards achieving the company’s goal of improving the quality of new homes and creating communities that leave a lasting legacy for future generations.”

Keepmoat divisional chair Charlotte Goode added: “Our West Midlands and Southwest team is currently delivering across five operational sites and has completed 240 new homes in the last year. We specialise in developing brownfield land and we are committed to building 4,000 future homes with net carbon zero emissions – namely on our Winterstoke Gate development in Weston-super-Mare. I’m excited to see Ben push forward our goal to regenerate areas through our partnership model and drive relationships with landowners to create thriving, sustainable communities.”
