We are delighted to congratulate two of our surveyors, Ian Newbury and Mark Siddons who have both recently qualified for chartered status with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). Following two years of hard work and training, both now have full MRICS status and are recognised by their peers as having reached a set level of competence.

Ian is a Senior Surveyor with Retail & Leisure Agency, acting for landlords and local and national retailers on High Street, Shopping Centres and Out of Town properties in both an agency and landlord & tenant capacity. He graduated from Cardiff University with a 2:1 honour’s degree and gained an MSC in Real Estate from the University College of Estate Management.

Mark is a Senior Surveyor with Industrial and Office Agency, responsible for helping investors, occupiers and developers acquire, let and dispose of warehouse, industrial units and office space across South Wales. He graduated from Nottingham University with a 2:1 honours degree, and also has a post-graduate diploma in surveying from the University College of Estate Management.

Cooke & Arkwright supported Ian and Mark throughout the APC process, providing guidance, advice and training, including mock interviews. Becoming a qualified Chartered Surveyor is extremely rewarding, not only personally, but also professionally. It is official verification of their status and abilities, and the advice they provide.
