Head of Communication and Public Relations
As Head of Communication and Public Relations at the British International School of Timisoara (BIST), Oana is passionate about sharing the vibrant stories that make our school community unique. She is driven by a core purpose: building lasting bridges between people, projects, and communities.
Oana brings a wealth of expertise to BIST, backed by a strong background in strategic communications, media relations, brand and event management gained across the automotive and regional development sectors. This cross-industry experience adds significant value to our public presence and community engagement.
Oana firmly believes that collaboration is the cornerstone of a thriving community, and that the personal example of an adult speaks far louder to children than words ever can. Guided by these principles, she leverages strategic communication to translate the unique benefits of an international education into meaningful growth for the broader local community.
Whether highlighting student achievements, driving media engagement, or nurturing local partnerships, Oana ensures that BIST’s values resonate authentically across every channel and every context.
The School Leadership Team translates the school’s vision into everyday practice, guiding the academic direction of the school and supporting students, staff and families.
British International School of Timișoara was founded on the vision of offering students an international education and meaningful opportunities for the future.
