Modular house builder TopHat has appointed JCB’s former chief financial officer (CFO) David Brown as CFO.
Brown was CFO at the construction equipment manufacturer for almost six years and at TopHat he will “enhance” the company’s board and executive team as it “enters a period of rapid growth” following its recent £70m fund raise.
Jordan Rosenhaus, CEO and founder of TopHat, said: “As a senior leader from a major manufacturing business, David brings with him the type of experience that will help us continue to revolutionise house building through the application of cutting-edge technology and lean manufacturing techniques. We’re delighted to have him on board as we enter an exciting growth phase.”
Brown added: “I am delighted to be joining a business which is harnessing technology and leading manufacturing processes and bringing this to homebuilding at scale. Manufacturing houses in factories is a critical part of tackling the nation’s housing crisis and TopHat is at the forefront of this dynamic sector.”
