New Executive Director

Yarlington Housing Group has appointed Barbara Richardson as Executive Director of Growth and Investment. Miss Richardson brings to the Housing Group a wealth of experience from her recent post as director with global real estate services provider Savills, where she was responsible for all aspects of land acquisition, identification, planning and development.

Her responsibility with Yarlington is to bring together the Development, Asset Management and Maintenance Services, and by aligning the three areas of the business she aims to maximise the best use of resources, offer excellent service delivery to residents, and make a lasting positive impact on the community. .

"I am very impressed by Yarlington as a company that delivers on its promises" said Barbara. "Being part of the community in which I now live is very important to me. I intend to become actively involved on both a business and a personal level."

Chairman Roger Powell added "To deliver our three year strategy we needed to make some changes to how our organisation operates, and by appointing Barbara I am confident we are now in a position to meet our ambitious Growth targets."
