“Having played an instrumental role in setting the practice’s Strategic Plan, I am delighted to now be a part of the team that brings the strategic vision to life.”

bureau^proberts’ Creative Director Liam Proberts says the role has been created in order to strengthen workplace culture and navigate through a number of local and international projects currently in the pipeline and into the future.

“This role recognises our unwavering commitment to fulfilling our design ambitions as well as business goals,” he says.

“We look forward to drawing on Amena’s extensive strategic leadership experience to bolster our practice and work in Australia and abroad.”
