LOS ANGELES Omnicom’s Cutwater is expected to announce this week that it has tapped Walter Smith to replace Brad Harrington as president.

Smith spent the last three years in Paris as the executive managing director of TBWA\G1 Europe.

Previously, he ran Nissan’s Infiniti business as an account manager at TBWA\Chiat\Day, Playa del Rey, Calif. Cutwater, San Francisco, has Jeep among its brands.

“I’m really excited about Walt because he has more years in the business than I do,” said Cutwater’s ecd and founder Chuck McBride, confirming the hire.
