By Erik Oster 

CP+B U.K. and international CEO Richard Pinder is leaving the agency after three years for an unspecified venture, The Drum reports.

“While I have loved every minute of working with the incredible team at CP+B, the draw of a return to entrepreneurial life is too strong to ignore. It just feels like the right time,” he told the publication.

Pinder joined CP+B in June of 2014, after co-founding and serving as CEO of The House Worldwide, a “new take on global networks,” comprised of  “small teams of senior globally experienced talent directly leading the client’s business combined with access to a raft of top quality companies who are available to solve functional and geographic needs on an as needed basis.” Prior to co-founding The House Worldwide in 2011 he spent four and a half years as chief operating officer for Publicis Worldwide.
