Social value is – and should always be – focused on creating meaningful outcomes that transform places and lives for the better. Loop is built around developing and measuring an accurate view on the social impact from development, working to take a place-based approach that ensures the maximum net positive possible.
The longstanding ambition of our parent organisation for a built environment that creates better places and a brighter future for everyone has been taken to new heights by additions to the Pagabo Group board. Dave Stott has been appointed as our new Chief Technology Officer, while Amman Boughan is moving into a new role as Deputy Chief Executive Officer.
Leading the charge on social value
Amman’s move comes after two years as Pagabo Group’s Chief Financial Officer, and reflects his growing role working with the wider group board delivering strategic direction that makes sure all business units innovate and build the relationships that deliver positive outcomes.
He said: “One of the biggest things that brought me to Pagabo Group initially was the approach to relationships and the longstanding unique market position – with business units that provide a brilliant blend to collaborate with clients and supply chain across every stage of development delivery.
“That position hasn’t changed, and by focusing on digitisation, ongoing innovation, and a people-first approach, we can create meaningful benefits for people, communities, and local economies. It’s an area I’m particularly passionate about, especially as a father – what we do today shapes the world the next generation will inherit.”
Unlocking technology to deliver better
Dave Stott’s appointment as chief technology officer is the latest step in the drive to innovate the sector, which like many others is facing increasing pressures to deliver more than ever before to meet evolving community needs.
He said: “It’s a unique opportunity ahead of us, and leveraging technology and data to break down siloes and transition to a more joined-up approach across the industry is something that’s never been more opportune with the rapid emergence of AI. Alignment across the built environment is integral, and we have a range of products that mean when things are ‘done right’, then everyone benefits.
“Everything combines to create a net positive. This can mean organisations spending wisely, businesses improving operations across projects, and communities or individuals reaping the rewards of delivered works.”
Taking social value to the next level
Amman and Dave will be working closely with our wider leadership team in taking the business forward and meeting ambitions to unlock the best possible outcomes. Their expertise will be crucial in blending technology, data, and people-first relationships to transform built environment investments into positive outcomes for people, places, and the planet.
Our Chief Executive Officer, Simon Toplass, said: “Our business is built on evolving markets through both innovation and relationships – making sure that the right people, solutions and support are there for partners to deliver real results.
“There’s always more to be done, and that’s exactly why we’re investing in both digital solutions and people. Welcoming Dave to the team and Amman into his new role at a pivotal time is the latest move in developing our board to turn challenges into opportunities and efficiencies. Working together with the wider board and our colleagues, we’re continuing our drive to find the best ways to deliver better outcomes for all.”
