The accolade places him among a select group of just 35 site managers recognised for exceptional standards this year. The Pride in the Job competition, run annually by NHBC, is widely regarded as the UK sector’s benchmark for site management quality. Quality Awards, announced each June, are the first stage in a series that can lead to Seals of Excellence, regional titles and ultimately Supreme Awards for the best sites in each category. Bromford contracts manager Shaun O’Connor joined Mr Boam on site to celebrate the award, praising both the quality of the build and the nature of the location. The Redditch Road project will deliver new, long‑term affordable homes for Hopwood and the wider Alvechurch area, at a time of high demand for social rent housing locally.
