Coleshill-based Avant Homes West Midlands has strengthened its team with three new appointments to support the housebuilder’s expansion plans throughout the region.

Nigel Rimmer has been hired as construction manager, whilst Toni Swindale and Layla Malik have joined as customer liaison manager and management accountant respectively.

With 40 years’ experience within the housebuilding industry, Nigel Rimmer arrives from residential developer Taylor Wimpey. In his new role, he is overseeing the delivery of Avant Homes West Midlands’ new homes build programme.

Toni Swindale, who has almost a decade of experience in customer care, joins from housebuilder Bovis Homes. As customer liaison manager, she is tasked with supporting the regional business’s customers following the completion of their home purchase.

Layla Malik has been recruited from multi-tenure developer Countryside Partnership and is playing a central role within the Avant Homes West Midlands finance team.

Welcoming the three new starters to business, Avant Homes West Midlands technical director, Mark Marsh, said:

“Nigel, Toni and Layla are excellent additions to our already strong team in the West Midlands.
