Regeneration specialist Vistry Partnerships has appointed Ian Hilliker as its new managing director for the North West region
Ian Hilliker has worked in the industry for more than 30 years, including 12 years as technical director at Barratt Homes.
Hilliker will join Vistry’s regional office in Warrington.
The appointment is Vistry Partnerships’ first senior hire in the region since the merger of Galliford Try and Bovis Homes at the beginning of the year.
A new chapter
Commenting on his appointment, Hilliker said: “Although I have joined the company at a very unusual time, I am really looking forward to the challenge ahead.
“Vistry Partnerships has continuously shown the benefits of working with others to deliver bespoke communities, but our work is far from complete.
“There remains a significant demand for new homes across the region, so I’m keen to identify new sites across Manchester, Liverpool and Cheshire to help drive forward with this exciting new chapter for the business.”
James Warrington, Vistry Partnerships’ divisional managing director for central and north, added: “We are standing on the brink of a huge opportunity for housing and development in the UK and Vistry Partnerships is perfectly placed to develop the partnerships, joint ventures and deliver the schemes that will turn this into a reality for people in the North West.
“Ian’s appointment reflects our commitment to this vision and we believe he can help us to continue to grow and evolve.”
