With Vanessa joining the team we will further establish our position as the leading sustainable brand within and outside of the hotel industry.”

Butani will be responsible for continuing Scandic’s work to optimize its operations and reach Scandic’s sustainability goals, as well as forwarding the company’s ambitions to drive sustainability within the entire hotel industry.
