Proxima appoints former TEAM LEWIS marketing lead as Marketing Director

Global procurement and supply chain consultancy, Proxima, has named Nadia Chand as Marketing Director to strengthen its brand presence across Asia Pacific, alongside its regional expansion.

In her new role, she focusses on strengthening brand visibility across APAC, while supporting commercial growth and talent expansion. Her remit also includes public relations and communications, working with regional and global teams to enhance the company’s visibility and credibility.

Nadia brings close to eight years of B2B marketing leadership experience, most recently serving as Marketing Director, APAC at TEAM LEWIS. During her tenure, she led content marketing, lead generation, and go-to-market strategies across the region.

“APAC is not a single market, it's a collection of highly nuanced economies, cultures, and business environments,” Nadia said. “I’ll be working closely with our regional and global teams to ensure our value proposition is consistently presented while adapting our strategy to reflect the priorities for each of our markets. It's about clarity, consistency, and building meaningful local connections.”

Commenting on the appointment, Jo Scott, Vice President Global Marketing at Proxima, said, “Nadia's ability to balance global brand consistency with local market relevance will be critical as we build on the strong foundation established through our merger with ArcBlue late last year and strengthen Proxima's presence across the region.”

TEAM LEWIS introduces integrated AI platform

TEAM LEWIS has launched version one of its AI operating system, Orbital (OS1), as part of its global offering. The platform is designed to connect insight, creativity, messaging and public-facing delivery.

Orbital combines data from across public relations, customer relationship management, paid media and web activity. It is structured around three pillars:

Intelligence
Orbital works with each organisation’s own data and context to identify the signals influencing reputation, demand and AI visibility.

Creativity
The platform helps teams turn insight into creative work, while preserving marketing judgement and originality.

Delivery
Orbital supports the people representing an organisation, spanning media interviews, keynote presentations and leadership moments.

Fairil Yeo, EVP of AI & Growth at TEAM LEWIS, said: “The advantage increasingly lies with organisations that can act quickly on what they already know. Orbital is designed to shorten the distance between insight and action - helping marketing and communications teams work more effectively across markets, channels and teams.”

Chief Operating Officer at TEAM LEWIS, Yvonne van Bokhoven, added: “Technology can connect information, but it cannot replace judgement. Orbital gives our specialists a clearer view of what matters, more quickly. The decisions - and the responsibility for making them well - remain human.”
