Another NHBC ‘Pride in the Job’ award for Moorfield Park Site Manager

Jones Homes Lancashire is once again celebrating the success of a site manager who has won a prestigious industry award for the quality of his work. We are super proud that our Site Manager Chris Doolan has won an NHBC Pride in the Job award for the second time at our Moorfield Park development in Poulton-le-Fylde.

Chris Doolan, 35, who lives in Preston and is in charge of construction at Jones Homes’ Moorfield Park development in Poulton-le-Fylde, was over the moon when he found out that he had won his a Pride in the Job Quality Award for the second consecutive year.

Pride in the Job is the most highly regarded competition in our industry and a prestigious benchmark for exceptional site managers. To win this award for two consecutive years demonstrates a continuity of care and a commitment to the maintenance of high standards.

House building is a team effort, but the calibre of the site manager has the most significant influence on the quality of the completed home.

The Pride in the Job Awards are organised by the National House Building Council (NHBC) every year to give recognition to those who achieve the highest standards in construction. Judging for the 2024 competition has been underway since July last year. Thousands of site inspections and meticulous scoring and verification have taken place to determine this years Quality Award winners.

Chris initially worked as a plumber after leaving school and completing a plumbing apprenticeship, making the move across into construction in 2013. He worked for another housebuilder as a assistant site manager before joining Jones Homes as a site manager at Moorfield Park.

He said: “Everyone within the development works very hard together and we are all dedicated to creating the best outcome. This team effort is what helped us to win the award.

“Being a site manager allows you to see the construction of a development from start to finish. One of my favourite things about my job is being able to see the end result, seeing the buyer getting their house and seeing them happy with the finished product.”

Chris will now be put forward to be considered for the next stage of the Pride in the Job competition. Seal of Excellence award winners will be announced later this year.

A selection of two, three, four and five-bedroom homes are available to reserve at Moorfield Park with prices starting from £206,995..
