Rowena Bhagchandani, CEO and co-founder of BLKJ Havas, has taken on an expanded role as chairperson and chief integration officer of Havas Singapore.

In her expanded role, Bhagchandani will focus on bringing together Havas' capabilities across creative, media, customer experience (CX), health and public relations, as the network looks to offer clients more integrated access to its expertise.

Announcing the appointment on LinkedIn, Bhagchandani said the opportunity was about bringing more of Havas' capabilities together around clients' ambitions, particularly as their challenges become more complex.

She said the Havas Village model allows clients to access independent creative, media, CX, PR and health talent while also tapping into the wider Havas ecosystem.

"What's powerful" about the Havas Village, she said, is not simply the breadth of expertise, but what becomes possible when that expertise is brought together around clients.

Bhagchandani also thanked Havas leadership, including global CEO Rana Barua, Donna Murphy and Peter Mears, for their trust, while acknowledging the existing foundations within Havas Singapore.

Bhagchandani will continue to lead BLKJ Havas as CEO and co-founder alongside her expanded responsibilities.

The appointment comes as Havas continues to strengthen its integrated Village model across the region.

Clack joined Havas Hong Kong 10 years ago and has worked across digital and performance marketing, client relationships and the agency's broader service offering.
