Plowman Craven launches Australian operations with new Sydney office

Plowman Craven, an international surveying company, announces its entry into the Australian market with the opening of an office in Sydney. Serving as the cornerstone of its operations in the region, the new office will enable Plowman Craven to deliver its innovative surveying solutions to the Australian property and construction industry.

Mark Howells, who has been appointed to the role of Managing Director of Plowman Craven Australia, will oversee the strategic business direction and growth objectives in the region. With extensive leadership experience in the geomatics, real estate, and engineering sectors, Mark previously spent over 20 years with Plowman Craven in the UK, latterly serving as Sales Director at the Board level. After relocating to Australia in 2023, he has re-joined the company to support its expansion in the Australian market.

For over 60 years, Plowman Craven has specialised in delivering high-quality geospatial data for sectors including property, rail, infrastructure and logistics. As one of the largest surveying companies in the UK, with additional offices in the US and India, Plowman Craven secured private equity backing from Agathos in April to accelerate its international expansion, including its entry into the Australian market, and development of its digital service offering.
