“I am very pleased to announce the appointment of Philip Slavin to the role of Chief Financial Officer at Quintain. With our fast growing Build to Rent division, our expansion into Ireland last year, and the increasing complexity of our business, Philip’s expertise in strategic financial planning and operating businesses will be a key element underpinning our ambitious growth strategy. I would also like to thank Michael Jenkins for his significant contribution as Finance Director over the last three years and I am delighted that he has accepted a new role focusing on the performance of Quintain’s operating businesses” said James Saunders, CEO at Quintain.
