NHBC’s Pride in the Job Supreme Awards recently celebrated the UK’s best and brightest in house building quality
With over 8,000 entrants across the UK, the competition is split into five categories celebrating those striving towards superb house building quality in the UK.
Organised by the National House Building Council (NHBC), the UK’s leading new homes warranty and insurance provider, the Pride in the Job Supreme Awards is one of the most highly regarded competition in the house-building industry.
Celebrating its 43rd year, the Supreme Awards took place on Friday 19 January 2024 at London Hilton on Park Lane.
The Pride in the Job 2023 Supreme Award winners are:
- Small builder category winner – Aaron Parradine of Wickford Development Co Ltd for his work at Woodlands Park in Great Dunmow, Essex
- Medium builder category winner – Cathal Brannigan of Alskea Ltd for his work at Oakfield Park in Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

Each site manager nominee was assessed across six key areas: consistency, attention to detail, leadership, interpretation of drawings and specifications, technical expertise and health and safety.
Commenting on the Awards, Steve Wood, CEO at NHBC said: “The role of the site manager is one of the most demanding and challenging in house building. It’s important to recognise the vital role the UK’s very best are playing in making sure new homes are delivered on time, on safe sites and to exacting construction quality standards.
“These awards play a pivotal role in NHBC’s drive to give consumers confidence in the quality of new-build homes. Congratulations to all of the 2023 Pride in the Job Award Supreme winners. They are an inspiration and should be very proud of the quality of new homes they are creating.”
