A talented project manager from Cheshire has been named among the UK’s finest after winning the Project/Construction Manager of the Year accolade at the National Building and Construction Awards.
The awards ceremony, held on 10 October at the Leonardo Royal Hotel, gathered leading firms from across Britain’s construction and development sectors to recognise excellence and innovation within the industry.
Claudia Dickens, Project Manager at Beeston-based Eaton Homes, claimed the prestigious national honour, marking a moment of immense pride for both her and the company.
“I am over the moon to receive the recognition from such a prestigious event. It is a fantastic achievement to be recognised, especially in such a male-driven industry”
Claudia joined Eaton Homes over three years ago following a successful global career in event management, where she delivered complex projects around the world. Her work at Eaton Homes has played a key role in the company’s ongoing growth and development.
“As a Project Manager, I oversee large-scale construction projects, often coordinating with several team members and contractors throughout the different stages from planning, development, and build to completion. I also work alongside colleagues assisting with sales and ensuring we deliver quality homes, including monitoring our aftercare, resolving any snagging issues that may occur.”
“After many years of managing events across the globe, I decided to move my focuses more locally. When the position at Eaton Homes came up, it felt like perfect timing!”
During her time with Eaton Homes, Claudia has benefited from the mentorship of company director David Thompson, who she credits as being pivotal to her professional journey.
“David has been an incredible mentor. His knowledge and experience are second to none, and his support has really shaped how I approach leadership and project delivery,” she said.
Eaton Homes, a developer renowned for crafting high-quality residential properties across Cheshire and the North West, proudly celebrated Claudia’s national achievement. David Thompson commented:
“We are incredibly proud of Claudia and all she has achieved. Her leadership, dedication, and attention to detail embody what Eaton Homes stands for. This award is a fantastic recognition not just of her hard work, but of the collaborative spirit that drives every project we deliver.”
Eaton Homes was also named among the finalists in the Residential Developer of the Year category, further underscoring the company’s reputation for excellence.
