The developer behind the £800m transformation of Wembley Park has become the 51st client partner of the Considerate Constructors Scheme
The Considerate Constructors Scheme has welcomed its 51st client partner. London developer Quintain took the position, affirming its commitment to improving the image of the construction industry.
Quintain, the developer behind the £800m transformation of Wembley Park in north-west London, will be expected to encourage compliance with the scheme’s Code of Considerate Practice on all its registered sites.
Since 2002, when it first acquired Wembley Park, Quintain has invested significantly in the construction of new homes, shops, hotels, public realm, and community infrastructure. Some 1,000 properties have already been delivered, with a further 6,000 expected to be built by 2020. Furthermore, the firm expects to invest around £1bn more in the site over the next five years.
Client Partner
Matt Voyce, Executive Director of Construction at Quintain said: “We are delighted to become a Client Partner of the Considerate Constructors scheme.
“The values at the heart of the Scheme are a core part of our ethos at Wembley Park and we look forward to working with all contractors across the site to encourage best practice for the community, the environment and the workforce.”
Considerate Constructors Scheme Chief Executive Edward Hardy said: “We are thrilled to welcome Quintain as the 51st Client Partner of the Scheme. Clients perform an essential role in helping to improve the image of the construction industry.
“They are in the prime position of working in collaboration with contractors and the entire supply chain to present a positive image of the industry, not just for themselves but for the industry as a whole.
“Client Partnership was pioneered by the Scheme in 2007 and there are now 25 Client Partners which have been working with the Scheme for over five years.
“Client Partner registered sites consistently perform to a higher standard than other Scheme-registered sites, further underlining the positive impact this Partnership has on improving the image of the industry.”
