Bio
Steve Merrick
I hired Nira to establish a more dynamic and proactive Communications Department for BMS Brazil and was extremely pleased with her performance and the results. Just a few days into the role, I asked her to take the lead in organizing a CEO visit which went extremely well, and she was also able to organize an impactful article with a CEO interview in Exame Magazine at short notice. She was able to maximize the impact of other important external communication opportunities and was also very thoughtful around internal communication, making sure messaging was consistent and had a logical flow. She was good at aligning people around projects, being able to give a holistic picture of the objective. Finally, I was very impressed by the way she took accountability for updating things peripheral to communications but important to the company such as our crisis plan and the in-bound telephone menu. I can highly recommend Nira as a dynamic and effective communications professional.

Nira has an amazing knowledge and experience on brand and corporate communications. She is capable of building great cross-functional teams involving people from different countries. She is insightful and a nice team player. She helped me a lot in designing and honing the PR plans for Avastin, Tarceva and other brands. It was a great pleasure working with her.
