Aneesa Arshad

Iman is one of the most talented and passionate young professionals I've managed at Blueground. He was a star performer on our b2b sales team, quickly moving from SDR to AE and closed two of our largest corporate accounts. During his time as an AE, he took it upon himself to start an initiative to use alternative energy for our utilities in several US markets. His passion for sustainability and the ROI that he showed from this initiative resulted in Iman becoming our first sustainability manager at the company. In that role, he wore a number of hats and was extremely successful in working cross-functionally across our global markets to reduce our environmental impact. He's was an absolute pleasure to manage and I loved seeing him blossom in the sustainability role, his true passion.

I had the opportunity to work with Iman for a year, during which he kicked off -with his own initiative- the Sustainability Manager role in Blueground. From the first moment I was impressed by his passion, vision and business acumen at such a young age. Iman managed not only to create the role in the company but also to build in a very short time and with minimum support the sustainability roadmap for Blueground. Furthermore he pursued business opportunities for energy savings of thousands of dollars and for waste reduction across the supply chain. I would highly recommend Iman for roles related to sustainability and operations under the framework of the ESG strategy of any high growth company. His expertise, ability to work independently and creativity are valuable assets for any team!
