A leading Llantrisant-based housebuilder has continued its growth by bringing in a new engineering assistant and architectural technician. Persimmon Homes East Wales is thriving with new houses being built in Cardiff, Barry and Hay-on-Wye and exciting new projects lined up for the second half of the year. The business has recently added another two new faces to its office-based team. The new recruits are football-mad 25-year-old Warren Hudson as engineering assistant and travel-loving 27-year- old Rebecca Jones as architectural technician. Warren, from Port Talbot, graduated from the University of South Wales in 2014 with a Project Management in Construction degree. He has been working within motor insurance since leaving uni but is now delighted to have landed a role within his chosen sector. His key roles include co-ordinating services, managing and distributing structural and civil engineering information and producing health and safety literature. Warren, who plays for Briton Ferry Llansawel in the Welsh Football League and has also represented his country at Futsal, said: “I am thrilled to have secured my first employment within the housing development industry. “This is the perfect learning ground for me. It’s a fast moving industry and Persimmon is a great company to be with.” Rebecca, from Dinas Powys, is an Interior Design graduate having studied at the University of Glamorgan until 2011. She has worked at a number of design practices and has experience in hospitality design, education and workplace design. Rebecca’s roles include producing drawings for planning applications and for use in marketing materials. “I have always enjoyed the technical side of my roles and I’m detailed-orientated,” said Rebecca. “After a number of years with my previous employer I wanted to expand my knowledge and experience. “I’m really enjoying my time at Persimmon so far. It’s a great team.”
Martin Smith, managing director at Persimmon Homes East Wales, said: “As a business we have performed exceptionally well over the last few years. There is a huge demand for good quality housing in South Wales and we are extremely busy meeting that need. “Our success has allowed us to expand our team in all areas and to create jobs. We’re delighted to welcome Warren and Rebecca to the team and wish them well on their Persimmon journey.”

marketing suite at high-profile Cardiff housing development, Te Mill, Canton. Five homes at this new urban village just ten minutes from central Cardiff were snapped up over the launch with an additional four reservations on homes not yet released for sale, as homebuyers flocked to admire the stylish interiors of the stunning two-bedroom show property. VIPs from the partners behind the development, which is bringing 800 new homes to the former Arjo Wiggins paper mill site, also joined forces at a pre-launch event to celebrate the opening of the brand-new marketing suite. Te Mill will feature 358 homes for open market sale by Lovell and 442 homes for rent which will be managed by Cadwyn Housing Association for the Tirion Group. Te scheme is going ahead with the support of the Welsh Government and financial backing from the Principality Building Society, and is being developed by the Tirion Group in partnership with Lovell. “Te Mill continues to attract a remarkable response from homeseekers who love the riverside location, so close to the city centre, and are even more impressed when they see the incredible style and build quality on display in our stunning show apartment,” says Lovell regional sales director Julie Bowen. “We had some fantastic feedback from visitors amazed by the apartment’s cutting- edge interiors. It’s a show property with incredible impact and it was great to hear so many positive comments on its construction finishing and fixtures and fittings as well as the sophisticated room layouts.” Many visitors over the launch weekend took the opportunity to speak to the Independent Financial Advisor available to provide guidance on mortgages and ways of making homebuying more affordable, including the Help to Buy – Wales Equity Loan* which enables purchasers to secure a property with as little as a five per cent deposit. With luxury interiors by interior design specialist Blocc, the main attraction of the spacious show apartment is a superb open- plan living / dining / kitchen area which is the perfect place for socialising, entertaining and relaxing as well as offering views over the development’s tree-lined river walk and
beyond, with its French doors opening on to a Juliet balcony. Te apartment also features two good-sized double bedrooms, including the master bedroom with en-suite, and the family bathroom. Following the success of the launch, just a handful of homes are currently available at Te Mill, including a small number of three-bedroom townhouses offering flexible contemporary accommodation over three storeys. Tey start from £270,000 (£216,000 aſter a Help to Buy – Wales Equity Loan) for the Oak house style while the Aspen, one of the development’s largest properties, is priced from £295,000 (£236,000 aſter a Help to Buy – Wales Equity Loan). Its prime location makes Te Mill the obvious choice for anyone seeking quick and easy access to Cardiff city centre but it will also suit those needing to go further. You’re only two miles from Cardiff Central railway station which provides services throughout South Wales and into England. By car, the nearby A48 gives easy access to the M4 while to the south, the A4232 takes you to Cardiff Bay. Cardiff Airport is only 12 miles to the south west.
