SPEEDWELL Development announces the appointment of Maria Jianu as Leasing Director. Maria will work closely with Andreea Comșa, SPEEDWELL’s Commercial Director and will actively contribute to expanding and strengthening the company’s tenant pool in its commercial projects including QUEENS District, SpacePlus and Paltim.

Maria Jianu has an impressive track record, managing leasing strategies for over 300,000 square meters of office space in her previous roles. Involved in initiatives around sustainability, digitization and marketing, she has facilitated strategic partnerships that have brought long-term value to the projects and business communities where she worked.

”I am thrilled to have Maria join the Speedwell Superteam. Her professional knowhow and track record, combined with her drive and enthusiasm, represent the values that Speedwell stands for. Maria’s focus on customer care is a continuation of Speedwell’s belief that tenants choose and remain with a landlord, not (only) because of a high-tech efficient building, but more importantly because of the community-focused approach of the landlord, ensuring tenant employees’ wellbeing and the resulting organic move to increased presence in the office. ESG is not only about E, Maria brings the S to the mix to brew the perfect recipe for our tenants,” points Didier Balcaen, Co-Founder and CEO of SPEEDWELL Development

In her new role, Maria Jianu will have a significant impact on the leasing strategy of SPEEDWELL Development projects, focusing on creating a balanced tenant mix of well-known brands and emerging companies. She will also develop strategic partnerships designed to improve the tenant experience, helping to create dynamic communities.

“Maria is an experienced commercial leasing professional with a valuable skill set acquired over the years. Given the complexity of SPEEDWELL’s projects and our medium and long term ambitions, it is essential to have a professional with a solid background who understands the market in detail and can provide tailored solutions to meet the needs of our clients. Her over 7 years of experience in managing complex portfolios and signing leases for more than 30,000 square meters in the last two years is a major asset for our team. We are confident that Maria will bring added value to our projects through her innovative approaches and ability to build long-lasting strategic partnerships,” adds Andreea Comșa, Commercial Director at SPEEDWELL Development

The decision to appoint Maria Jianu as Leasing Director comes at one of the most effervescent times for SPEEDWELL, as the company accelerates the development of ongoing projects and focuses its attention towards ambitious new initiatives both in Romania and in Poland.
