BuildDirection

BuildDirection is a consultancy founded and led by Tina Snedker Kristensen.

In my work, I operate at the intersection of strategy, branding and sustainability initiatives, with the market as a guiding reference point.

About BuildDirection

I have more than 30 years of experience in marketing, communication and branding, including 27 years at Troldtekt, where I was responsible for establishing and developing the marketing, communication and sustainability functions.

Today, I work as a consultant in close dialogue with executive management teams and boards of directors.

Assignments are always tailored to the specific organisation and its strategic needs.

Services:

Branding strategy, sustainability strategy and cross-border positioning are the three pillars of my work.

Branding Strategy

I work with branding strategy as a strategic foundation for positioning, prioritisation and direction.

In my work, the focus is on creating clarity and consistency, enabling the brand to be applied strategically across the organisation and the market.

Sustainability Strategy

I work with sustainability strategy as part of the organisation’s overall strategic framework.

Here, the focus is on clarifying ambitions, choices and direction, ensuring that sustainability becomes meaningful, credible and applicable in practice.

Cross-border Positioning

II work with cross-border positioning across markets and national contexts.

I am based in Denmark and have particular experience from Germany, Scandinavia and Northern Europe, where national differences influence strategic positioning.

Danish-German Chamber of Commerce

BuildDirection is a member of the Danish-German Chamber of Commerce, which works to strengthen collaboration between Danish and German companies.

For Tina Snedker Kristensen, the membership provides access to a strong business network and insight into collaboration opportunities between Danish and German stakeholders – also within the building and real estate sectors.
