Stewart Milne Group has announced the appointment of Alex Goodfellow to its Main Board.

Previously Managing Director of Stewart Milne Homes Central Scotland, Mr Goodfellow will have overall responsibility for Stewart Milne Timber Systems and will take the role of Group Managing Director – Timber Systems UK.

Alex Goodfellow has over 25 years’ experience in the sector, starting as an Architectural Technician with Walker Homes and then as Chief Architect at Beazer Homes before moving to the Stewart Milne Group in 1991.
