Linda Schuur has been appointed Head of Sustainability for Intea and will take up the position on 1 October.
In this newly created role, Linda will lead the development of the company’s strategy to reduce its carbon footprint both during construction and in its property management. She will also be responsible for coordinating Intea’s architecture and work on creating sustainable urban spaces, and will be a member of the company’s management team.
“We have high ambitions, and Intea is already environmentally certifying all new buildings. We intend to up the pace of these efforts by factoring in environmental concerns in our processes, and maintaining focus in our innovations,” commented Henrik Lindekrantz, CEO and Intea’s founder.
Linda has wide-ranging experience from the property sector and construction industry, both in Sweden and internationally, in roles such as architect, business developer and sustainability manager. Linda holds an MSc in Architecture from Chalmers University of Technology. Linda has previously worked as a consultant and sustainability strategist at SURE Studio. Prior to that, she held the position of Sustainability Business Developer at Serneke.
“I want to reinforce Intea’s positive drive to help improve society. It’s important to take a holistic approach to new construction in terms of social issues as well as reducing our carbon footprint and encouraging reuse of materials, to create attractive buildings and neighbourhoods. I find Intea’s desire to contribute to culture, art and architecture while focussing on environmental issues incredibly inspiring,” said Linda Schuur.
