Ingalls Posts Layoffs

The anticipated loss of $15 million in billings from Raytheon Co. drove Ingalls Advertising to cut at least a dozen staffers last week.
In a move independent of the layoffs, Diana Scott has resigned as managing director of the agency’s direct response unit, Ingalls One to One Marketing. She had been with the shop for nearly four years.
Scott is expected to join John Hancock Financial Services in a senior marketing post. Her appointment will not become official, however, until after a vote of the company’s board of directors, expected early next month, Scott said.
Ingalls One to One Marketing handles assignments for Hancock’s marketplace division.
