TESTIMONIALS
“The thing I love about Atomic 212° is the limitless opportunity – having joined the organisation with only 4 years experience, I was regularly given the chance to be exposed to conversations, new business pitches & meetings well beyond my years experience, which saw me grow to become a media director within a year of joining, present in multi-million dollar pitches within 2 years and become a client lead and core member of the senior leadership team within 3 years”.
“In Melbourne alone since 2019, our team has grown from 20 to 49…our hires have been across all disciplines and levels, including senior management roles in our business – Head of Performance, Head of Client Service, Client Leads (GBDs) and a Strategy Director”.
