InterEasts new Head of IT & Engineering

To take lead as Head of IT & Engineering in the venture of developing the booking portal Elise, InterEast recruited Daniel Asplund, who previously worked as IT Manager at Inteleon SMSPARK.

InterEast has steadily evolved from being a niche transport company by broadening its portfolio in the last couple of years.

To take lead as Head of IT & Engineering in this venture InterEast recruited Daniel Asplund, who previously worked as IT Manager at Inteleon SMSPARK.

I’m looking forward to taking part in changing the mindset of this market. To do this journey together with our growing team is the most exciting aspect of all, says Daniel Asplund.
