Bradford housing association appoints director of development and growth

Bradford housing provider Incommunities has appointed Aimee Law to the role of director of development and growth.

Aimee has more than 18 years’ experience in delivering large scale, mixed tenure, residential developments across both public and private sectors.

She joined Incommunities in July 2022, as head of new business and programme compliance in the Development Team, where she has played a key role in the organisation’s growth.

Incommunities, which owns 22,650 homes across Bradford and other parts of Yorkshire, sees Aimee’s appointment as a pivotal part of their ambitious growth targets, which include securing 2,000 new build homes by March 2026, with a goal of delivering 400 new starts per year.

Aimee’s decision to join Incommunities was driven by her strong desire to deliver new affordable homes and have a meaningful impact improving communities.

She said: “Having grown up living in social housing, I am passionate about ensuring people have access to good quality and affordable housing and I am excited to take on this new role at Incommunities.

“This opportunity will allow me to use my skills and experience to develop more affordable homes for those in need. I am committed to driving our growth ambitions and making a lasting impact on the communities we serve.”

Under Aimee’s leadership in her new role, Incommunities will focus on delivering larger-scale mixed developments, encompassing Affordable Rent, Social Rent, Rent to Buy, and Shared Ownership.

The organisation’s geographic focus will span West and part of North Yorkshire, with specific emphasis on Bradford, Kirklees, and Calderdale.

Graeme Scott, executive director of development and growth at Incommunities, congratulated Aimee on her promotion.

He said: “I would like to congratulate Aimee in securing this role. With her substantial experience and vision, she will really help to drive our growth targets. She has already been instrumental in implementing new development processes, securing valuable development opportunities, and supporting the growth and development of the team.”

To support its growth targets, Incommunities is also recruiting for key positions within the Development Team, including head of delivery, project manager, and new business manager.
