Steve Chesney takes over in September 2024 as managing director of H+H UK from Calum Forsyth, who will then become non-executive chairman.
Steve Chesney joins H+H from Woods Air Movement, a manufacturer of industrial fans and part of the Swedish Flأ¤kt Group, where he was managing director. He has nearly 30 years’ experience in the building services sector, with such companies as Weir, Crane and Beck & Pollitzer.
“I am hugely excited about the future of the H+H business in the UK and, indeed, for the construction sector as a whole,†he said. “In taking over the role I am absolutely committed to upholding the values and principles that have made the company a leader in its field and will build on the work done over many years to foster a culture of excellence, innovation and collaboration.
“I must also extend my sincere appreciation to Calum for his leadership and dedication to H+H. There is a very strong foundation on which to build.â€
Calum Forsyth said: “The last few years have brought unprecedented challenges. I am proud of the resilience and adaptability of H+H UK and of how it has maintained its position right at the heart of UK housebuilding. The company is poised and ready for the opportunities that a new government, focused on the need to deliver more housing, can bring.آ I am absolutely confident that Steve’s experience and enthusiasm for the sector will enable H+H to capitalise immediately on those opportunities.â€
