Housebuilder Vistry Group has appointed Emma Colin as its new managing director for the West of England, creating an even ratio of males and female directors on the regional board.
Ms Colin replaces the retiring Dave Farley in the post, and will oversee the delivery of new homes for Bovis and Linden brands in South Gloucestershire, Bristol, North Somerset, Somerset, and Wiltshire, as well as Wales.
A former boss at property consultancy Strutt and Parker and developer Ballymore, Ms Colin is the eleventh woman Vistry has promoted to board level across the company over the past two years, and will be responsible for a 140-strong regional workforce.
