We’ve received confirmation that after spending the last three years as managing director of the JWT Inside’s New York office, Tonya Garrett has left the agency. We’ve been told that Garrett’s last day was actually Nov. 15 at Inside, which in case you didn’t know, is the JWT unit that aims to “advance employee engagement through comprehensive advertising, marketing and employee communications services.” Sources familiar tell us, though, that Garrett isn’t going too far as she’s transferring to another WPP company with the full support of JWT Inside management.
After serving on the account side for several years at the likes of Razorfish and iCrossing, Garrett joined JWT Inside in summer 2010 to lead the NY office alongside creative director Timothy Bruns, who parted ways with the agency back in August. We’ve been told that neither of their roles are being replaced at Inside and that their duties are being absorbed by existing staffers.
