The UK Apartment Association (UKAA) has appointed Graham Sibley as its new operations and marketing director.
In his new role, Sibley – who helped to establish the NHBC – will head up all UKAA operations, covering purpose-built, professionally-managed rental homes in the build to rent, single family rental, co-living and later living sectors. He will work closely alongside UKKA CEO Brendan Geraghty.
Geraghty said: “We have a busy year ahead, with the delivery of the Build to Rent Code of Practice, the rebranding of the UKAA to reflect the scale of the sector and the progression of the UKAA manifesto. Graham’s wealth of experience from within the UKAA and beyond will ensure sound operational management at this important time in the organisation’s growth.”
Sibley added: “I am excited to be joining the UKAA at such a key time for the organisation and for the purpose-built accommodation sectors that its work covers. Increasingly, such accommodation is delivering value for investors, developers and residents alike, making it an essential component of the UK’s housing mix going forward – as well as numerous overseas markets. I look forward to leading the UKAA’s important operational work as these accommodation models continue to mature.”
