Housebuilder has acquired 10 new developments in the area
Keepmoat has announced it will split its West Midlands and South West region to create a dedicated regional business for the latter.
The housebuilder took the decision to set up a new South West division, which will be based in Bristol, after the acquisition of 10 new developments, five of which are due to progress next year.
The division will be led by Ben Leather, who joined Keepmoat as regional managing director for the West Midlands in July 2024.
He will be replaced in that role by Shaun Fielding, who joins from Fields Housing Services, having previously worked at Keepmoat for 15 years.
“This is a really exciting time for the business as we establish our tenth Region, a dedicated South West office, to deliver our new land acquisitions and progress ten new sites,” said Leather.
“This growth is testament to our success in the region as we continue to develop a strong pipeline of opportunities, bolster fantastic relationships with local authorities and our partners, and work to create sustainable new communities.”

“This is a fantastic step forward for Keepmoat as we seek to grow the business and increase our output in the coming years.”
