Meet our People
Here’s what some of our talented people have to say about working at Cedar Woods:
James Bovell, VIC State Manager
I joined Cedar Woods as a Development Manager, working on Williams Landing within the Victorian portfolio. The scale, diversity and complexity of the project were what first attracted me to the business.
Since then, the opportunity to collaborate with and learn from people across Cedar Woods has played an important role in my development. With strong support and mentoring along the way, I have progressed to my current role as State Manager for Victoria and a member of the Executive Team.
I am grateful for the learning and development opportunities Cedar Woods has provided me throughout my career. As a leader in the business, I am equally passionate about ensuring our people continue to benefit from opportunities to grow, whether through hands-on experience, mentoring, or formal training.
Being part of a national property developer has also allowed me to broaden my experience across the country. Cedar Woods supported my transfer to Perth and, following my promotion to Development Director, my relocation back to Melbourne.
Linda Malicdem, Head of Financial Planning & Analysis
I joined Cedar Woods as an Assistant Accountant, and it has proved to be one of the best decisions of my career.
Throughout my time with the business, I have been supported in continuing to develop professionally while taking on new opportunities and responsibilities. That support enabled me to complete graduate diplomas through Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand and the Governance Institute of Australia, as well as an Executive MBA from Melbourne Business School.
Today, as Head of Financial Planning & Analysis, I am proud to have grown my career at Cedar Woods from its beginnings.
The company’s commitment to developing its people and creating a supportive workplace has played an important role in my journey, giving me the confidence and opportunity to keep learning, contribute and grow.
Lauren Young, WA Marketing Manager
Collaboration is an important part of the culture at Cedar Woods, and I enjoy working closely with our Development and Sales teams to help bring quality projects to market.
My role focuses on building strong project brands and delivering marketing strategies that generate interest and support sales. Just as importantly, I am passionate about community engagement and the relationships that form around the places we create.
That is why I find purchaser events and community initiatives particularly rewarding. They are an opportunity to connect with the people who will call our communities home and see the impact of our work firsthand.
