This is a new role to head up a team of multi-trades specialists to deliver responsive repair and maintenance works for Trail’s social landlord clients – housing associations and local authorities.
Darren will oversee a range of contracts to address damp and mould, bathroom and kitchen upgrades in void properties, general repairs, door replacements, and electrical testing and compliance.
A qualified electrician and testing engineer, Darren brings 12 years of experience in social housing repair and maintenance to Trail Group.

“Darren brings some really valuable, specialist experience to this role, particularly in dealing with residents and stakeholders, and ensuring every project is carried out to the highest standards.”
“We have also expanded our team of multi-trades specialists who will report to Darren, following an influx of new contracts.”
