Campion Homes has announced the appointment of Billy Bald as its new Commercial Director. This appointment will further enhance the company’s strategic leadership as it continues to deliver high‑quality homes across east central Scotland. Billy’s appointment comes ahead of the retirements of long-standing employees Alan Chalmers, Commercial Director and Ali Graham, Surveying Director.
Billy joined the business in February, bringing with him a broad and deeply rooted commercial background in the housebuilding sector. His career includes nearly 20 years at two of the UK’s leading national housebuilders, where he spent the last eight years as Commercial Manager.
Billy will have a focus on strengthening commercial strategy, enhancing supply‑chain performance, supporting land and development decisions, and driving value across projects. His remit includes leading the day‑to‑day operations of Campion Homes’ commercial team. He will also work closely with customers, managing budgets and costs, and collaborating with colleagues across land, technical and sales.
Billy Bald said: “It’s an exciting time to be joining Campion Homes and contributing to the next stage of its journey. I’ve seen first‑hand the difference that strong commercial rigour, collaboration and long‑term relationships can make and Campion is recognised for all of these strengths.
“While the market remains positive, there are still challenges to navigate. I’m looking forward to working closely with our customers, supply chain partners and colleagues across the business to deliver high‑quality homes and continued value. Campion has built an excellent reputation over many years. I’m proud to play a part in supporting its next chapter of growth.”
In addition to welcoming Billy, Campion Homes has also recognised its senior team with three individuals being promoted to Director level.
