NEW YORK Steve Harty, ex-managing partner of Interpublic Group’s Plus Consulting Group and co-founder of the former Merkley Newman Harty, is joining Bartle Bogle Hegarty next month as North American chairman, the agency said.

Harty, 53, fills a vacancy left by this month’s exit of Cindy Gallop, who was U.S. chairman and chief marketing officer.

Harty left PCG, a consultancy that was attached to IPG’s Lowe, in October. The unit dissolved upon his exit. Before that, he was president of Omnicom Group’s Merkley Newman Harty & Partners—now Merkley + Partners.
