The R.F.I department encompasses the activity of the financial-accounting, IT, legal, human resources, internal control, compliance and corporate communication departments, with the role of streamlining operations and increasing the company’s performance.

Ruxandra Dragomir took over the position of Development Director of the company in 2014, being responsible for the development and expansion strategy on the local market, in line with the vision of transformation and regeneration of cities through mixed-use projects.
