Universal McCann tapped Grey Worldwide’s Yin Woon Rani as president of the Interpublic media network’s North American operations. Rani, who starts her new job on Nov. 1, succeeds Jacki Kelley, who was named global CEO of UM last January.

In her UM role, Rani joins two other UM cluster presidents: Jim Hytner of G14 and Mauricio Sabogal of World Markets. Earlier this year UM’s parent Mediabrands, Interpublic’s media unit, restructured its traditional geographic model into three clusters: G14, World Markets, and North America.
