New Transformation and Positive Impact Project Manager at Nhood Portugal
With a consolidated career in the area of sustainability in the Brazilian market, Pedro Vasconcellos is joining the Nhood Portugal team as Transformation and Positive Impact Project Manager;
Pedro Vasconcellos has the mission of creating tools to generate positive impact in all the activities developed by Nhood, including the entire ecosystem surrounding the company, both internally and externally.
Pedro Vasconcellos, aged 33, has a degree in Environmental Engineering and also has a Master’s degree in sustainability. He started his professional career in the area of sustainability in São Paulo, Brazil. With a decade of experience, he has collaborated with several companies as the individual responsible for the management and implementation of strategies to reduce environmental impact.
As Manager of Transformation Projects and Positive Impact at Nhood Portugal, Pedro Vasconcellos is responsible for creating strategies to generate positive impact in all activities undertaken by Nhood Portugal, including the entire ecosystem surrounding the company, both internally and externally. This ambition is made possible through the development and implementation of a Triple Positive Impact strategy for projects carried out by the company, focusing on People, Planet and Profit. This includes a detailed analysis of all new technologies and procurement of sustainable solutions, as well as extra financial indicators. In addition to the application of this methodology to projects under development, this strategy will also allow for the improvement of environmental indicators in projects and activities already under way.
Pedro Vasconcellos, Transformation and Positive Impact Project Manager at Nhood Portugal, considers that “sustainability has an inseparable connection to the functioning of today’s cities. Cities have a very complex ecosystem, with various players, with various needs, and it is crucial that projects develop strategies and mechanisms to deal with all these aspects and that they always take positive impact into consideration.”
“The needs of all the elements making up a city, whether citizens, actual businesses, governments or civil society in general, must be met, while ensuring that these responses are rooted in respect for the planet. In the real estate solutions sector, companies play a key role, as they are the ones that will ultimately establish these connections, through their services and their projects.
Our purpose at Nhood Portugal is to directly and actively contribute to cities in order to generate a triple positive impact: people, planet and profit. For us, this is a clear vision of the future of cities and it allows us to decide to go ahead with a project from the development stage onwards, once we have assured that it will generate benefits for all”.
