A DUNFERMLINE builder has built on previous success by scooping another accolade at the Scottish House Building Council Awards.

Peter Lawrie, who is a senior site manager with Bellway, won the Pride in the Job title at the recent Scottish awards and will now fly the flag for Scotland in the national competition.

He was presented with the award for the Large Builder Category for his work at a development in Glenrothes.

With over 35 years’ experience in the industry, Peter, who has worked with Bellway for almost two years, is no stranger to the awards having won a Pride in the Job with a previous housebuilder.

Earlier this year he secured a Pride in the Job Award, then a Seal of Excellence Award and now the prestigious Regional Award.

Peter was delighted with the latest accolade.

"I’m over the moon to have won this award and honoured to be attending the UK finals. To be honest I firmly believe that hard work pays off, alongside great teamwork and attention to detail," he said.

“It’s not just about the work that you do on site, but you are inspected on all aspects of your duties from office work to customer service. It’s extremely in depth which makes it all the more satisfying to have won.”

Tracey Brady, Managing Director, Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland East) said it was a "tremendous achievement" for Peter.

“His dedication to the job is evident amongst all his team and to have won for Earl’s Way which has a particular complex topography is even more rewarding," she added. "It’s a tremendous testament to his professionalism.”

Peter will now represent Scotland at the UK Supreme final’s taking place in January 2024 in London.
