“Sonya brings a wealth of local expertise to this role and that, backed by Media Tonic’s extensive knowledge of our business, is going to bring fresh opportunities for our partners in Adelaide.”
Llewellyn added: “I’m delighted to be joining Yahoo’s award winning sales team. After several decades working in the local media scene, I’m keen to get stuck in and work alongside the team to paint this town purple.”
