Amethyst Homes expands team further

A Northeast housebuilder is strengthening its team with the appointment of a new Quantity Surveyor.

Hannah Maurice, 33, from Whitley Bay, joins Amethyst Homes – which has increased its workforce from just three to 28 in the past decade. She will be responsible for estimating costs, calculating the materials needed and mapping out project timelines.

Hannah has significant experience in the industry, beginning her career as a graduate with a national housebuilder where she worked for several years, before joining a regional developer in the Midlands. She has a Business and Applied Finance Degree and HNC in Construction.

“I was interested in moving from a large PLC developer to a smaller, regional house builder, – like Amethyst – because I find the product and range of sites far more interesting.” Said Hannah. “In addition, I feel that as part of a smaller team, you can offer a more personalised customer service to clients and homebuyers.

“Amethyst Homes has a great reputation for building a quality product and has an experienced, close-knit team which is incredibly supportive. I look forward to helping the company continue to deliver much needed housing across the region.”

Richard Bass, Managing Director at Amethyst Homes, said: “It is great to have Hannah onboard, she is a welcome addition to our growing team.

“She has a good grounding in the industry and is acutely aware of the current challenges in the market, not least the elongated planning process and supply chain constraints. I am confident that Hannah will be able to work closely with our supply chain and partnering organisations to overcome these challenges, enabling us to deliver our high standard of properties to customers in a cost effective and timely manner.”
