Genesis Homes forms new Senior Management Team as growth continues in 2019

Posted on: February 18, 2019

Genesis Homes has introduced a diverse new Senior Management Team to coordinate different aspects of the company’s rapidly expanding operations. The new team consists of Genesis Homes’ Head of Finance and Corporate Admin Joe Abernethy, Head of Land John Blue, Head of Brand Catherine Watson, and newly-promoted Head of Construction Mark Cash.

Bringing together considerable experience from companies like WYG, Story Homes and Gleeson Homes, the team is also highly qualified – Joe Abernethy is a Chartered Accountant and Catherine Watson is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Marketing and a qualified interior designer.

John Blue said: “It’s an exciting time for us with a lot of work to do in 2019. We’re set to begin on-site in Armathwaite in the next couple of weeks, which means we’ll have three sites under construction, many more people moving into their completed homes, and three additional sites progressing through planning.”

Head of Finance and Corporate Admin Joe Abernethy said: “One of the benefits of working for a relatively young company is that you have the chance to get everything right from the very beginning and grow with the company. It’s great to have an experienced team in place to smoothly bring together operations, finance, planning and marketing across all our sites to maximise efficiency and productivity as we expand so quickly.”

Managing Director Nicky Gordon said: “I look forward to working with our new Senior Management Team in what promises to be a big year for us. The great reception we’ve had since our launch has completely surpassed all our expectations and projections – it’s a clear sign that we’re meeting a strong demand in the market locally for beautiful new homes. While some may describe this as a time of political and economic uncertainty, I think it’s important to point out that we’re seeing fantastic footfall on our developments – we’re making sales and experiencing huge interest in reservations on our newest sites even before we’ve begun construction.
