Hill Group nabs planning boss from Related Argent

Housebuilder Hill Group has appointed Alex Woolmore as head of planning as it ramps up its housing delivery to help the government to meet its goal of delivering 1.5m homes.

Woolmore joins from Related Argent, where she spent 16 years, most recently as planning director. 

In her new role, Woolmore will provide advice and guidance on planning-related matters to support the promotion of Hill’s strategic land portfolio and the delivery of its existing pipeline. She will also drive the acquisition of new sites, helping the business achieve its housing delivery targets and ensuring smooth navigation through planning applications.

Andy Hill, founder and chief executive at Hill Group, said: “Her appointment comes at an exciting time for both Hill and the housing sector, as we establish ourselves to unlock new opportunities under the new National Planning Policy Framework. The Hill Group is well-positioned to capitalise on these changes, with our proven track record of creating community-focused developments.”
