Allison Homes appoints new Head of Sales to growing East Midlands region

We are excited to announce that we have appointed the first Head of Sales for our East Midlands team, to help push forward our ambitious plans for the region.

Allison Homes East Midlands is our newest region, covering Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, with land recently acquired in Shepshed, Anstey, Stanton-under-Bardon and Rearsby.

Amy Gormley, from Derbyshire, is bringing a wealth of experience with her to the brand-new role, having worked in the housebuilding sector throughout her career.

She started at a small, family-run developer in Derbyshire, before moving on to Redrow and Avant Homes. During her time with these companies, she took on an array of roles in the sales department and gained valuable experience of the sector. She later moved on to the Shared Ownership department at Sage Homes, where she was responsible for over 30 developments across the UK with her patch being any site north of Leicester.

She found out about the opportunity to join the Allison Homes team through a former colleague and was excited to take on the challenge.

Amy said: “I was drawn to this unique opportunity to join the business at the point of conception of a new region. The growth that the business is set to go through is extremely exciting, and working together as a team to achieve success will provide unparalleled job satisfaction and personal growth.”

Her new role will see her develop and run the sales department for our East Midlands office, leading the team to secure sales and achieve their targets, thereby enabling further growth across the region. Working towards this goal will include coaching the team to help them progress and feel motivated within their roles, and ensuring that our values of trust, teamwork, kindness and passion are at the forefront of everything they do.

Amy added: “No day is the same. I could be researching sales values to provide feedback to the land team one day, meeting with interior designers to brief for show homes or interviewing potential candidates to join our team the next.

“My favourite part of working in the industry is seeing customers move into their dream homes as it makes everything, we do worthwhile, and I also love helping members of the team progress and achieve their career goals.”

Karl Edwards, Operations Director for Allison Homes East Midlands, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Amy to our East Midlands region. Her wealth of experience makes her an impressive addition to our team and I am confident she will do great things in her role as Head of Sales.”
