Antony Green
Chief Executive
Our mission is to build a company that not only strives for excellence but also embodies our core values—establishing a strong foundation for growth, resilience, and reinvestment. In today’s world, we operate with sustainability at the forefront, minimising environmental impact while making a positive contribution to our community.
We aim to position Fairbank Investments as a recognised leader in our industry—renowned for excellence, adaptability, and a forward-thinking approach. Our goal is to deliver strong financial returns while also making a lasting, positive impact on both the property sector and society as a whole.
While we recognise the urgent need for new housing, our strategy is deliberate and targeted, avoiding indiscriminate development. We take pride in evaluating every opportunity with care, balancing economic growth with environmental responsibility. The UK’s countryside and green spaces are treasures worth protecting, and we are committed to addressing the housing challenge in a strategic, responsible, and sustainable way.
“It all began in Yorkshire, back in 1982, where I took my first job as a labourer in the construction industry. My upbringing taught me the value of hard work and wit, which proved invaluable when progressing onto navigating the planning systems, local authorities and securing the best property deals. Despite the competition, I never let intimidation get the best of me, relying instead on my "streetwise" mentality to push forward and succeed where others have failed. Above all, doing business with honest and like-minded individuals is of utmost importance to me, and our company's success is a reflection of these values. Long hours and dedication have paved the way for our ongoing success and achievements to date.”
