Rund appointed to Aster’s Employer’s Agent and Clerk of Works framework

We are delighted to confirm that Rund has been appointed to Aster Group’s new Employer’s Agent and Clerk of Works framework, which commences in November 2024 and runs through to 2028. 

Aster is a housing association which provides quality, affordable homes to thousands of people across the south of England and London. Last year, the business delivered 997 homes offering affordable and social rent, shared ownership and open market sale options and is set to provide circa 1,175 during 2024/25. Looking ahead, Aster has plans to invest £1.9 billion to achieve its long-term target to add 8,500 homes to its portfolio over the next seven years – which the new framework is set up to support. 

Rund’s services have been recognised across a number of regions forming the framework – including Employer’s Agent services in Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Dorset, Hampshire, Sussex & Surrey, Berkshire & Oxfordshire, and London – and Clerk of Works services in Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Sussex & Surrey, Berkshire & Oxfordshire, and London.

The framework appointment follows on from a wealth of projects Rund has been proud to work on alongside Aster, including Boorley Green, Southampton - a development of 360 new homes on the site of a former golf course alongside a school, sports pitches, community centre and allotments.

Our highly regarded Employer’s Agent and Clerk of Works services are set to support Aster in their ongoing mission of ensuring “everyone has a home” – by providing innovative, sustainable solutions and well-developed processes which ensure high-quality and safe homes. 

Tim Woodman, Associate Director at Rund commented: “We are delighted to be part of Aster’s new framework, reinforcing our commitment to supporting their vision of providing quality, affordable homes. Our appointment as Employer’s Agent and Clerk of Works reflects our shared values and the success of our ongoing collaboration. We look forward to bringing our expertise to this framework, ensuring the delivery of new homes that positively impact communities across the south of England and London.”
