Bourne developer Allison Homes appoints new non-executive director

Allison Homes has announced the appointment of Gordon More as a non-executive director.

A former interim chief executive and chief investment officer of Homes England, Gordon joins the Bourne-based developer as they seek to deliver against ambitious targets.

Gordon also has over 30 years’ experience in banking and finance. Before his appointment as interim CEO, Gordon played a key role in the development of the strategic housing plan adopted by the UK government.

Speaking of the appointment, John Anderson, CEO Allison Group, said: “Gordon’s experience, and passion for, encouraging the proliferation of small and medium enterprise (SME) housebuilders will provide invaluable support to Allison’s board as we pursue our targets.

“As a well-funded SME, we are in a strong position to make a significant impact on the industry, shaking up the way things are done and exploring new avenues to help deliver the homes that this country needs so urgently. I am looking forward to Gordon’s advice and guidance as we continue this exciting phase.”

Gordon added: “Allison Homes is already marking themselves out as an ambitious company with innovative approaches to the delivery of new homes.

“The recent announcement of the Legal & General partnership is an excellent example of this, demonstrating a willingness to explore multi-tenure developments - which I believe play an essential role in the future of housebuilding in the UK.”

Gordon took up the new role from April 1.
