Meet Matt, our Senior Land and Partnerships Manager here at Strata.
Matt joined the Strata family just over three years ago as a Land Buyer before being promoted to Senior Land and Partnership Manager in the summer of 2022.
Matt is responsible for helping the Pre – Development team source and secure new land opportunities to allow us to build new homes and communities in the future. Who knows, Matt may have played a huge role in where your future dream home may be located!
Here is what Matt had to say about working at Strata
'Working for a family business who care about their staff was one of the main reasons I joined Strata. This sense of being part of a family and close-knit team has only strengthened over the years and I’m delighted to have met so many people I now call friends. I look forward to continuing my journey with Strata over the coming years as we continue to grow and establish ourselves in new markets.'
Matt’s poem talks about how we are scouts, exploring the path ahead, and that is absolutely true! Each piece of land that we view has to resonate with us, it has to be meaningful and connect with the communities that we are creating, it is where many people will call their new home after all! We make sure to research each location, making sure that each detail is perfect. From great transport links, to the best place to get a coffee with friends or the best rated schools, we have considered everything to make it the perfect place to call home.
It takes years of work
to get shovels in the ground.
We’re the scouts:
exploring the path ahead,
putting thumbs to the wind.
We’re project managers:
pushing sites through,
firing up the engine.
We guide dates,
we guide pace,
we guide programmes.
We bring our team on the journey;
bring people together:
story-tellers,
thriving under pressure,
making things happen.
We’re doers.
We get-up-and-go:
securing sites,
feeding the team,
building momentum.
We enjoy our successes,
as much as taking a step back,
thinking things through,
passing the baton on,
getting ready to go again.
Be assertive,
make a noise,
keep pushing…
but in the right way:
staying friendly,
being ourselves,
having integrity
and honesty.
We’re learning to be calm,
teaching,
guiding the next generation.
Together we’re changing lives,
regenerating sites,
transforming communities,
making a difference.
We’re the gatekeepers:
unlocking the future,
opening doors.
