Building a career in housebuilding
With Bradley Stoke in North Bristol being close to where Chris grew up, he set his sights on a career in the housebuilding industry from an early age. This was Europe’s largest new build town in the late 1980s. He commenced a letter writing campaign in his early teens. Asking housebuilders for careers advice and to visit their developments, he’d then go on his bike at the weekend! This approach yielded sage advice from many industry stalwarts. “I’d encourage anyone starting out in the housebuilding profession to be tenacious, as it will be rewarded.” adds Chris.
