Developer appoints former CEO of the Eden Project

Treveth, a sustainable development company in Cornwall, has appointed the former CEO of the Eden Project as a non-executive director.

Gordon Seabright is the chief executive of the Horniman Museum & Gardens in London, where he oversees one of the UK’s most forward-thinking and socially responsible cultural institutions.

Previously, Seabright served as chief executive of the Eden Project from 2014 to 2020.

“I am absolutely delighted to be joining the Treveth board,” said Seabright. “Treveth’s mission to build high-quality, sustainable homes that are specifically targeted towards local residents aligns perfectly with my own passion for ensuring Cornwall’s future prosperity. I look forward to contributing and helping to shape a more affordable and vibrant future for the region.”

In his most recent role, Seabright led the Creative Land Trust in London, gaining valuable insights into the property sector and the importance of balancing commercial development with social considerations. This experience, combined with his previous work in community-based initiatives, positions him as a valuable asset to Treveth.

“Gordon’s appointment is a significant milestone for Treveth,” said Tim Mulholland, managing director of Treveth. “His deep understanding of Cornwall, coupled with his proven track record in sustainable development and community engagement, will be instrumental as we continue to grow and make a positive impact in the region. We are thrilled to welcome him to the team and look forward to the wealth of knowledge and passion he will bring to the table.”
