ATLANTA Howard Merrell & Partners said it has named Howard Sherman president and chief operative officer.
The appointment follows a nine-month search and paves the way for agency partner Mac Merrell’s eventual retirement within the next year. With the installation of Sherman, Merrell, 61, becomes chairman and CEO of the Raleigh, N.C., shop, a unit of the Interpublic Group.
“Howard brings to us a unique combination of qualities including management of a high-profile creative agency, brand marketing savvy and a belief system that fits this culture,” said Merrell.
