Spitfire Homes has welcomed Martin Brazier as its new Commercial Director, as the homebuilder targets further growth across the Midlands.
Bringing more than 15 years of commercial experience, Brazier’s former role at Taylor Wimpey saw him lead the development of high-performing talent and play a key role in the roll-out of COINS, a software platform that supports housebuilders and property companies including Spitfire Home to streamline project delivery and operations.
Brazier will be responsible for the further growth and performance of the commercial team, using his network to engage with specialist contractors to support business growth across the region. Brazier will also continue to engage with new and existing contractors and suppliers to support the development and delivery of Spitfire’s high-quality, sustainable product.
Since launching a new strategy and product range, targeting a broader market in 2021, Spitfire has launched a collection of sites across the Midlands in areas including Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire and Birmingham. With a pipeline of more than 2,000 homes, it aims to bring much-needed high-quality, sustainable homes to the region over the coming years.
Commenting on his appointment, Brazier said: “Spitfire Homes has a strong reputation for quality, from the signature properties it delivers for buyers to the service it provides.
“Reflected in the launch of its new vision, brand and wider product range in recent years, the scale of Spitfire’s ambition is clear. Joining the business’ talented and ambitious team to support the next phase of this journey is hugely exciting and a fresh challenge for me.
“As a commercial team, our focus is working with a range of sub-contractors and suppliers to ensure the delivery of Spitfire’s high quality, sustainable homes that people can be proud of, and I’m looking forward to working with the team to be a part of that.”
Committed to delivering sustainable futures, Spitfire properties include a range of features such as air-source heat pumps, smart heating systems, underfloor heating and car charging points.
Ben Leather, Managing Director at Spitfire Homes, said: “Martin has a wealth of commercial experience in the sector and shares our passion and desire to build sustainable, high-quality homes fit for modern living.
“It’s never been more important to listen to our customers, understand their priorities and react to their needs when building our new homes. In recent years we’ve taken huge strides toward meeting the rising demand for our properties, with a robust development pipeline meeting a wider range of homebuyer requirements across an array of price points and product types.
“Our appetite to develop this further remains strong as we continue to explore further land opportunities across the Midlands region. I have no doubt that Martin will play a significant role in supporting Spitfire Homes to fulfil our ambitions of delivering further growth throughout 2023 and beyond.”
