DDB found a New York president within the Omnicom network.

DDB New York appointed Audrey Melofchik to the role, effective immediately. Melofchik will also continue to oversee Omnicom’s Johnson & Johnson dedicated Velocity OMC unit as president. Her appointment follows the departure of DDB New York president and CEO Chris Brown, who had been with the agency for decades, last October. She will report directly to DDB U.S. president and COO Paul Gunning.

“I’ve known Audrey for many years and her influence on not only individuals but teams at both agencies and clients has resulted in mutually beneficial client-agency partnerships.
