Stonewater appoints group director of development
Matthew Crucefix will replace James Bradbury, who was recently named chief investment officer.
Stonewater has appointed Matthew Crucefix (pictured) as group director of development.
Crucefix will replace James Bradbury, who was recently named chief investment officer.
Crucefix was interim director of development operations before this appointment, looking after Stonewater’s development programme including sales and lettings of new homes.
He has worked at Stonewater and its predecessor Raglan since 2010, focusing on affordable housing.
Crucefix said: “I have had the pleasure of delivering a wide variety of development schemes and opportunities in my time with Stonewater so far.
“It’s been rewarding to manage programmes that have contributed to achieving our ambitious growth aspirations and I look forward to continuing to position ourselves as a leading voice in the sector.
“The UK is facing a real crisis in delivering affordable housing, particularly in rural areas, with research by the English Rural Housing Association finding that only nine per cent of rural homes were classified as affordable versus 19% in urban areas.”
Crucefix added: “I am passionate about our commitment to help resolve this, finding opportunities to deliver new homes in rural areas that are both affordable and appropriate to support the long-term sustainability of rural communities.”
Bradbury said: “One of the best parts of my job is when I see colleagues being given opportunities to grow and develop their careers at Stonewater.
“Matt’s career is an interesting example of how to make the best use of your transferable skills, as within eight years of joining us, Matt went from working as a Community Initiatives Officer to being responsible for half of our development programme.
“Seeing him move into the Group Director of Development role is proof of his continued dedication to Stonewater’s continued growth and it’s great to see how we, as an organisation, really do grow our own talent and support colleagues in their careers.”
