FORMER Liverpool Land Development Company chief executive David Waugh has been appointed chairman of commercial developer Cosmopolitan Enterprises.
The company, set up in 2003, acts as the commercial development arm of the Cosmopolitan Housing Group, which also comprises a 2,000 home not-for-profit housing association and a commercial provider of over 3,500 student homes.
Profits generated by Cosmopolitan Enterprises are ploughed back into the housing association.
It aims to establish a pipeline of developments to generate at least £500,000 a year for the group’s charitable objectives.
During his five years at the helm, Mr Waugh oversaw the multi-million pound regeneration of four key strategic areas of Liverpool.
They included the Edge Lane Project and the transformation of hundreds of acres of industrial wasteland in Speke Garston.
