Co-Founder Hedge Eyes ‘Broader’ IPG Role
NEW YORK–Angotti, Thomas, Hedge has promoted its top officers in an effort to retain key talent, just weeks after the departure of executive creative director, Rochelle Klein.
Co-presidents Barrie Hedge and Tony Angotti were named co-chairmen. Managing director Howard Sherman was promoted to president and operations director Terrie Paladino was named chief operating officer. Angotti, who is chief creative officer, assumes the duties of Klein, who moved to the top creative post at Tierney & Partners in Philadelphia.
On Friday, a week after the promotions were announced internally, Hedge confirmed he has talked to parent Interpublic Group about assuming a post at that company.
“When the time is right, we have an agreement that I’ll take a chunk of time before I take a broader role in the organization,” said Hedge, 51.
He declined to elaborate or say when he’d leave the New York agency.
