Clemenger BBDO Melbourne CEO, Nick Garrett, said the two new staffers couldn’t have landed at a better time.

“Deanne and Carol will be great additions to the team. Deanne’s overseas experience with creatively focused big brands will be a real asset on Mars. Carol’s broad integrated experience will be extremely valuable for the agency as well,” he said.

Both have fitted in to the Clemenger culture, add a previously missing depth to the department and we feel lucky to have them.”
