As part of our 30th anniversary celebrations, we’re delighted to announce the expansion of our team with the appointment of three new members of staff. This growth comes at an exciting time as we prepare to launch two new developments in Walkington and Cherry Burton, further expanding our portfolio of communities across the East Yorkshire region.
Expanding our customer service team
In June, we welcomed Amanda to our sales team, Amanda brings with her over two decades of industry experience. Her extensive background in customer service and previous experience working with large volume housebuilders has equipped her with invaluable insights into creating exceptional customer experiences.
Amanda explained: “If I could sum up what attracted me to Risby Homes in three words, it would be family, local, and quality. While my role is in sales, I really do care about the people I sell homes to and the people I work alongside! I love being customer facing and, to me, there’s no better product to sell than new homes. No two days are the same!”
Amanda has been joined in the Sales Team by Carol Allen. Carol provides a unique perspective, having moved homes 19 times and herself coming from a home-building family! With over 20 years experience in new build sales, Carol brings genuine empathy and understanding to the home-buying process.
She explained: “Having worked for volume builders for over 20 years, it was so refreshing to move to this lovely local family business, where both staff and customers are valued. I get a real buzz out of matching customers to a specific plot and following their journey to their new home.
Carol and Amanda will support Jemima Clarke, Customer Experience Manager, acting as the first point of contact for all new enquiries, alongside supporting each homebuyer on their journey ensuring a smooth process, and excellent communication every step of the way.
Strengthening our construction expertise
In August, we also expanded our construction expertise welcoming Iain Pettit as the new site manager at our Figham Gate II development in Beverley. Iain will oversee the development of the 35 homes in our latest development in the town.
With an impressive background including 13 years as an NHBC building inspector and experience as a site manager at Countryside Properties, Iain brings invaluable expertise to our team.
Iain said: “I was drawn to Risby Homes’ because of their reputation for building homes with character and detail and built to an exceptional standard.” His experience in inspecting everything from basements to high-rise apartments and commercial buildings ensures our homes continue to meet the exceptional standards we’re known for.
The expansion of our team comes as we prepare to expand our portfolios of developments and create two new communities in Walkington and Cherry Burton. While these developments are in the early planning stages, they’re already generating significant interest, with some homes provisionally reserved.
As we close our 30th anniversary year, our growing team reflects our commitment to maintaining the personal touch and high standards that have defined Risby Homes since 1993. We’re not just building houses; we’re creating communities with a team that truly understands and cares about our customers.
Whether you’re looking for a home in Cottingham or Beverley, or interested in our upcoming developments in Walkington and Cherry Burton, our Sales Team are here to guide you through every step of your journey to your new Risby home.
