Citadel-MAGNUS Co-Founder and MD, John Gardner, to step down

John Gardner, Managing Director of corporate and financial communications firm, Citadel-MAGNUS, has announced he is stepping down at the end of this year from the business he co-founded back in 2009.

John will retain a small stake in the company and intends taking a few months out, focusing on his board positions at the WA Cricket Foundation and IQ Wellness Group, before deciding what's next.
