Compendium Living appoints project manager

Hull-based regeneration specialist Compendium Living has appointed Lisa Johnson as project manager to support the delivery of large-scale schemes across the country.

Lisa brings more than 25 years’ experience in the housing sector, having held roles spanning repairs, housing management, development and regeneration.

In her new role, she will support Compendium Living’s portfolio of housing-led regeneration projects, including long-term schemes in Derby and Hull.

Lisa said: “I was attracted to the role as it brings together project delivery, partnership working and community engagement. 

“Compendium Living’s focus on quality homes and the wider regeneration of local areas closely reflects my professional interests and experience. 

“I’m really excited to have joined a company with a clear focus on regeneration, partnerships and long-term placemaking.

“My new role is varied, with a typical day covering everything relating to project management, communications and relationship building with stakeholders and local communities. 

“One of the most rewarding aspects of the role is the opportunity to work with a wide range of partners and contribute to projects that are revitalising local areas.”

The company, a joint venture between Lovell Partnerships and Riverside Group, is delivering around 700 homes alongside green space and commercial space at Castleward in Derby.

Its regeneration of Ings in east Hull is also creating more than 700 homes within a new community called The Leeway.

Lisa’s arrival follows the appointment of Simon Medler as managing director, who joined after almost 19 years with Lovell’s East Anglia operation.

Lisa added: “I’m looking forward to supporting the delivery of Compendium Living’s regeneration projects. 

“These schemes are about more than delivering new homes, they’re about supporting regeneration through partnership working, helping to create attractive, sustainable places where people want to live and spend time, as well as contributing to the long-term wellbeing of local communities. 

“Our key priority is continuing to work collaboratively with partners to support well-planned, well-connected developments that respond to the needs of their areas.”
