JAMES Fitzpatrick has been made regional finance director at Bovis Homes Eastern region.

He fills the post after two years as the company's regional finance manager, and is looking forward to his new role.

“I took on the manager's role from scratch because our finances had previously been handled by another region,” he said.

“It's been a great challenge putting long term procedures in place while running the day-to-day finances.

“My new position will enable me to expand that remit further to ensure Bovis Homes Eastern region which is part of a FTSE 250 company, delivers on all financial fronts.”

Mr Fitzpatrick, 33, of Sudbury, has a strong background in the construction trade having worked for various home developers.

He will be based at the Bovis Homes Eastern region head office in Camborne, Cambridgeshire.
