Arcadia is delighted to announce senior promotions for 2024, with a number of our people recognised for the advances they have made in their career growth.

“We have an exceptional team at Arcadia, and every year it’s rewarding to see the people who have used the training and development skills that Arcadia provides to foster their capability and competency in landscape architecture and urban design,” says Alex Longley, Managing Director at Arcadia Landscape Architecture.

“I am particularly proud to share that our first ever staff member, Andrew Mason, who joined me when I founded Arcadia in 2011, has been promoted to Principal. He has displayed exceptional dedication to his career and Arcadia, developing skills to manage highly complex projects from concept to delivery. This has included project as diverse as Newmarket in Randwick, Sydney Metro Barangaroo Station and Nawi Cove Public Domain, and most recently the application of REVIT into LIM (Landscape Information Modeling) on significant open space and recreational projects.”

Andrew is joined by new Associate Yoga Peng, and Senior Landscape Architects, Chang Liu and Rose Gurney, who have all demonstrated strong advances in their respective skillsets, highlighting what a bright future they have at Arcadia.”
