About Barratt David Wilson
Barratt Developments Plc started building quality new homes in 1958 and since then we have grown to become one of the nation’s largest housebuilders. Barratt aims to provide the highest standard of design, construction and customer service in the business, resulting in a host of major industry award wins in recent years.
Our vision is to be recognised as the nation’s leading housebuilder, creating communities where people aspire to live. We work closely with and listen to the views and interests of local people to make positive contributions to the communities in which we are building.
Barratt is the only major housebuilder to have won the exclusive ‘5 Star Housebuilder Award’ awarded by the Homebuilders Federation for ten consecutive years.
Apprenticeships
Barratt has an award winning development programme for apprentices and graduates called the Barratt Academy. The Academy provides professional training both on-site and in the classroom. For more information visit Barratt Homes’ future talent website here.

- Macro Employer of the Year 2014: National Apprenticeship Awards
Partnership with RSPB
Barratt has joined forces with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) to set a new benchmark for nature-friendly development.
The first development to pioneer the new approach will be at Kingsbrook Aylesbury Vale where the development of 2,450 homes and associated infrastructure will be designed to put nature at the heart of the proposals.
The two organisations have signed an agreement to incorporate some of the principles developed for Kingsbrook across future developments – the first national agreement of its kind in the UK.
