Growth of LandPartners’ Landscape Group

New staff joins LandPartners as landscape operations become more integrated

January 2008

LandPartners' CEO Geoff Hardy announced that the firm's Landscape Group is going though unprecedented growth and change with skilled new staff joining the leading built environment firm.

True to its spirit of innovation, the LandPartners Landscape Group will now have two broad activities, Landscape Architecture and Landscape Services.  The services to clients however, will be delivered with a further emphasis on interdisciplinary project approach.  ‘This is a great example of the Landpartners integrated services model' Geoff said.

Mark Perkins will lead the Landscape Group from the new LandPartners office at Varsity Lakes on the Gold Coast and will be focusing on recruiting permanent staff in Sydney, where LandPartners has found solid support for recent proposals.

The new business model and extensive career opportunities have attracted skilled staff such as Steve Dunn, formerly a Landscape Architect with the well-regarded West End firm, Gamble McKinnon Green.

Yet, this is just a sign of things to come. ‘In the near future we expect to have a strong capability in Landscape Architecture and Construction with Landscape Project Managers and skilled labour operating out of our offices in Brisbane, Springfield, Gold Coast, Ballina and Sydney' Geoff said.
