"Over the past six years he has worked closely with a number of key clients, played an important role in building our business and demonstrated exceptional leadership skills.
Heffernan’s appointment follows a series of recent client wins and reappointments at Atomic 212 nationally, including Spirit of Tasmania, Tourism Northern Territory, the Northern Territory Government, Beyond Blue, Programmed, NSW Police Force, NSW Rural Fire Service and Charles Darwin University.
