He said: “I was looking for the right role with the right people and found it with the Wain Group.
“It is an exciting time to have joined the company, which has been transformed under Will Ainscough’s leadership, with an impressive portfolio, clear strategy for sustainable growth and a real commitment to quality place making.

Will Ainscough said: “Jim’s wide-ranging experience will be hugely beneficial as we continue to develop the full potential of the Group and drive the high standards at Wain Homes which has just achieved five-star builder status.”
