Heather Gordon promoted to Marketing Manager with Barden

We are delighted to announce that Heather Gordon has been promoted to Marketing Manager with Barden’s Talent Advisory and Recruitment Firm in Ireland.

Heather began her career in Consulting at Deloitte before joining Barden in 2017, where she worked as a Senior Associate in the Newly Qualified Accountants Team. Additionally, she played a key role in establishing Barden’s Practice division.

After taking a sabbatical to focus on building her trail running business, Heather returned to Barden in April 2024 as Content Lead to help build the firm’s marketing capabilities.

“I initially joined the Barden business nine years ago, back when we were very much a start-up. It has been incredible to witness how the business has evolved and matured since then, and I am delighted and honoured to play a small part in the next phase of Barden’s growth as Marketing Manager.

The Barden talent advisory team is packed with high-calibre, experienced professionals. Combining their insights with the creative brilliance of our marketing team (namely Luke & Minh!) gives us a unique capability to elevate the Barden brand and the wider recruitment profession. While the business has grown a lot since I first arrived, what hasn’t changed is the genuine support, friendship, and great craic we share as a team. I am excited to experience my next chapter with Barden!” – Heather Gordon | Marketing Manager | Barden Ireland

“Congratulations Heather! I am absolutely delighted that you have been appointed Marketing Manager with Barden.  The impact you have had on how we think about marketing, our ambitions for what marketing can achieve for our people, the engine that you have created and the incredible quality (and consistency) of what you have, and continue to deliver, with Luke, Minh and your team, is the envy of our profession! 

Drucker said that there are only two things in business that make money – marketing and innovation (everything else is a cost centre) – and you do both!  It’s a joy to have you as part of Barden Heather, and I’m excited to see the impact that you and your team will inevitably have in 2026 and beyond! No pressure now!” Ed Heffernan | Managing Partner | Barden Ireland

Congratulations Heather!
