Independent agency HERO has appointed Maya Mausli to the new Sydney role of strategy director.

"The role is every strategist’s dream – nuanced and engaging with the opportunity to solve a number of complex client business challenges and, after watching amazing work developed by HERO from afar for quite some time, I couldn’t think of a better agency to be part of.”
