Wyatt Homes recently appointed Elisha Young as assistant site manager at its Rivers Edge development in Wimborne.
The 24-year-old joined the regional housebuilder last month, the latest step in a swift rise in her housebuilding industry career. Having graduated from Oxford Brookes University with a degree in Business and Management, she has already gained three years’ experience in the industry as a trainee assistant site manager with Morrish Homes.
Coming from a construction family, Elisha spent her formative years travelling with her father to building sites, where he was a subcontractor across many developments in Dorset, while her partner John works in management for a bricklaying company.
Her long-term goals include ascending to a site manager or contracts manager position.
Speaking of her appointment, Elisha said: “To be working for a company that prides itself on quality and immaculate presentation is fantastic. I’m thrilled to embark on this exciting journey with Wyatt Homes. I’ve already learnt so much, and look forward to being a key part of the customer journey and building a great community at Rivers Edge, within the Wimborne riverside which is already full of community spirit.”
She continued: “I came into the construction industry with no site experience so to have worked my way up to being part of such a beautiful development in such a short space of time is something I’m incredibly proud of.”
Of the work underway at Rivers Edge, she remarked: “With Wyatt it’s clear that the care, attention and expertise that goes into the whole process vastly improves the standard and specification of each home. Not only that, but the use of independent local suppliers, and Wyatt’s fantastic community work, assures me that the company I’m working for really looks after the local area.”
