More about Michael
Michael Roden is Commercial Trading Director at Marshalls, where he plays a leading role in shaping the company’s commercial landscaping strategy and strengthening its position as a trusted partner for complex public realm and infrastructure projects.
With extensive experience across commercial landscaping, specification and construction, Michael works closely with contractors, specifiers and project teams to help deliver landscapes that combine technical performance, buildability and long-term value. Representing the expertise of the wider Marshalls commercial landscaping and design & engineering teams, he champions an integrated approach that helps customers simplify complexity, reduce project risk and deliver more efficient, sustainable outcomes.
Michael is a strong advocate for a more joined-up approach to landscape design and engineering – one that brings together surfaces, details, elements and confidence from the earliest stages of a project. This includes integrated paving and drainage solutions, details that improve buildability and performance, elements such as street furniture and active travel infrastructure, alongside the reassurance provided through Marshalls’ in-house technical support and engineering expertise.
As part of Marshalls’ evolving Design & Engineering capability (MaDE), Michael champions the role of collaboration, technical insight and practical problem-solving in helping customers create better-performing spaces with greater clarity and confidence.
A regular contributor to industry thought leadership, Michael writes on topics including commercial landscaping, placemaking, infrastructure, specification strategy, sustainability and the future of integrated landscape design.
