With responsibility for investment and transaction management across the Nordic region, both Sofia Sandh and Rickard Slagbrand will support the team’s growth strategy as they respond to an uptick in interest from international investors in Nordic real estate.

Sofia Sandh has 12 years’ experience within the Nordics property industry, most recently with Savills IM as a Senior Investment Manager where she worked for eight years. Sofia also has experience with Catella Corporate Finance in property transactions and SBAB Bank as a real estate valuer. She has a degree in Civil Engineering from the Royal College of Technology in Stockholm, where she specialised in Building and Real Estate Economics.

Rickard Slagbrand also joins from Savills IM in Stockholm, where he has been since 2015 working as an analyst and most recently as a manager within the transactions team. He has a BA degree in Business management and Finance from the University of Westminster, as well as an MSc in Real Estate from Cass Business School.

Cromwell currently manages 45 properties in the Nordics, comprising over 325,000 sqm.

“Cromwell has managed a significant number of assets in the Nordic region for a variety of clients over many years. These new hires are directly in line with our broader ambitions to increase activity in the region, as well as the Group’s ‘Invest to Manage’ strategy. Both Sofia’s and Rickard’s knowledge of the Nordic property market will be invaluable in helping our team attain its goals,” says Mark McLaughlin, Managing Director Europe at Cromwell Property Group
