Moat is delighted to announce that Brian Johnson will be joining the organisation in late September as its new chief executive. He will be taking the reins from John Barker, who announced his retirement from Moat earlier this year.
Brian brings extensive leadership experience to Moat. He is currently chief executive of CityWest Homes, which manages 22,000 homes owned by Westminster City Council. During his four years as chief executive of CityWest, Brian has led the organisation to achieve recognition by the Audit Commission as an exemplar in the sector with a rating of three stars with excellent prospects. He also established a new home building programme, a first for an arms length management organisation.
Before he joined CityWest, Brian was executive director operations for Remploy, which employs 6,000 people with disabilities. Prior to that he was business engineering manager at Tate & Lyle. Brian originally trained as a chemical engineer and held a number of management positions at ICI.
Commenting on what attracted Brian to Moat, Brian says: Moat has a very strong reputation in the housing sector and deservedly so. I look forward to leading such a great organisation at such an exciting time, and to taking Moat from strength to strength!
