Hide AdScotland’s homebuilder, Miller Homes, welcomes David McGrath as the new divisional MD for Scotland East and West, the North East and Teesside, as well as timber company Walker Timber, acquired by the group in 2021.
Formerly regional chairman at CALA Homes, David takes the reigns from Peter Thomson, who recently retired.
Overseeing these four geographic regions, David will be heavily involved in supporting the teams to deliver against the wider company strategy, as well as ensuring a seamless introduction of the New Homes Quality Code.
He said: “The house building industry has evolved significantly since I was last at Miller Homes, but the company has successfully maintained the same ethos of building high quality homes.”
Deeside Timberframe has appointed David Crawford MD following John Wright’s decision to step back after 40 years with the Stonehaven business.
He will take up the reins in April. With extensive experience of improving manufacturing capacity and increasing profitability in the offsite manufacturing industry, Mr Crawford was previously a director with CCG (OSM) Limited – one of the most advanced offsite timber manufacturing facilities in the UK.
He has a BSc in civil engineering and MSc in timber engineering from Edinburgh Napier University and began his career with the same university as an associate consultant to its Centre for Offsite Construction and Innovative Structures which works with the building industry in innovation.
