James Lacey
Housebuilder Harron Homes has promoted James Lacey to trainee assistant site manager Shipley Lakeside in Heanor, Nottinghamshire.
Lacey brings over 15 years of industry experience to the team at Shipley Lakeside.
He said: “I initially worked on my family’s farm progressing into the housing industry from there. I’ve held a variety of roles since then, ranging from site supervisor on other developments to my most recent role as a driver. Throughout my career, though, I’ve sustained a keen interest in how the building process works, liked asking questions, and have always wanted to put my stamp on quality buildings.”
Lee Kilby, construction director for Harron Homes North Midlands, added: “It’s fantastic to see James step up into this role at Shipley Lakeside and the Waterfront. He’s a hard worker and it’s great he took the next step in his career with us here at Harron Homes. We pride ourselves on our care and dedication to delivering a dream home for our customers and we know James will do a great job.”
