We are proud to celebrate Hinternoosa’s Heather Fleming, who has been named Agency Support Person of the Year at the 2026 REIQ Awards for Excellence.

Announced at The Star Brisbane on Saturday, 31 October, the award recognises the care, expertise and dedication Heather brings to clients and colleagues. With Hinternoosa team members there to celebrate alongside her, it was a special moment for Heather and our whole team.

Supporting our clients and team since 2009

Heather joined Hinternoosa in 2009 and has become a trusted source of knowledge and support within our Noosa Hinterland agency. Her contribution spans sales administration, client support and operational leadership.

From the documentation and preparation involved in bringing a property to market to helping colleagues through training, onboarding and changes to agency systems, Heather’s work helps maintain a consistent client experience.

Hinternoosa Principal and Director Sirah Robb said the award recognises someone whose contribution is felt throughout the business.

“Heather is someone who quietly makes everyone around her better. She anticipates what needs doing, brings calm when things get busy and genuinely cares about the people she is supporting,” Sirah said.

“Since joining Hinternoosa in 2009, she has become a trusted source of knowledge and encouragement for our team. For clients, that translates into patient guidance, attention to detail and the reassurance that someone is taking care of the process.”

A proud evening for Hinternoosa

Heather’s win followed Hinternoosa’s recognition as a finalist in five categories. Alongside Heather’s nomination, Dannielle Preston was a finalist for Business Development Manager of the Year and Ruth Venning for Rising Star Salesperson of the Year. Hinternoosa was also a finalist for Large Residential Agency of the Year and the Contribution to the Community Award.

For Sirah, seeing Heather receive her award was a highlight of the evening.

“John and I are so proud of Heather. To see her named REIQ Agency Support Person of the Year is incredibly special. So much of her contribution happens behind the scenes, and this award puts a very deserving spotlight on her. Our whole team is absolutely delighted for her.”

Sharing the occasion with colleagues made the celebration even more meaningful.

“We work hard together, so it matters that we take time to celebrate together too. Seeing Heather recognised, with colleagues there to share her excitement, made it a night we will remember,” Sirah said.

Congratulations, Heather, and to all our finalists. We are delighted to celebrate this recognition of your work and the contribution you make to Hinternoosa.
