Adderstone Living, one of the UK’s fastest-growing affordable housing developers, has taken another key step in its national growth strategy with the opening of a North West base and the appointment of Mark Sexton as Regional Director.

The new office in Ashton-under-Lyne becomes Adderstone Living’s fourth regional base, joining its North East headquarters and operations in Yorkshire and the Midlands. This expansion reflects the company’s focus on a locally led, regionally rooted approach. With experienced senior leaders now in place across these regions, Adderstone Living is well positioned to scale its delivery of affordable homes nationwide.

Mark Sexton brings more than 25 years of experience in residential development, land acquisition and strategic planning. He joins the business after a decade as Development Director at Wiggett Construction Group, where he played a leading role in the delivery of a wide range of award-winning developments.

In his new role, Mark will head up the Greater Manchester office and lead the company’s activity in the North West, driving forward its pipeline, strengthening relationships with housing associations, institutional investors and local authorities, to support the delivery of high quality affordable homes in the region.
