The Owl Group has announced it has appointed Steve Breslin as its new Group Chief Financial Officer.
Steve joins Owl Group’s leadership team, where he will lead the financial strategy, ensuring the housebuilder has the financial strength and commercial discipline to support its growth plans across the Midlands for both its Owl Homes and Owl Partnerships brands.
Supporting ambitious growth plans
“This is an exciting opportunity to join an established business with ambitious plans,” says Steve. “Owl’s growth over the past year has been impressive. It has built a strong pipeline of land opportunities to keep that momentum going.
“The Group has a talented team in place and there’s a real sense of energy around the business. Working closely with our two regional MDs, Paul Breen and Mike Kelly, I’m looking forward to building on what has already been achieved and helping shape the next phase of growth,” adds Steve.
Steve brings more than 20 years of industry experience having held senior finance roles at Taylor Wimpey, Galliford Try Partnerships and Lovell Partnerships.
Strengthening the leadership team
Amanda Bishop, Group Growth Director at Owl Group, comments, “Bringing someone of Steve’s calibre into the business is an important step forward. We’ve grown considerably over recent years, but we’re also very clear that there is much more we want to achieve. Steve has operated at the highest level within our industry. He brings the financial and commercial partnerships experience we need as we move into that next stage.
“His appointment reflects both the scale of our ambitions, and the business Owl is becoming. We are delighted to welcome Steve to the Group and are confident about what we can achieve together.”
