R/GA Promotes 2 to Lead Its Creative Team in the U.S. and Announces Several New Hires

Chloe Gottlieb and Taras Wayner will serve as co-chief creative officers for R/GA U.S. The duo, who both formerly held the title of evp and executive creative director, will take on a bigger role in driving the network’s creative efforts. They will report to vice chairman and global chief creative officer Nick Law.

Gottlieb and Wayner also will expand a leadership model described as “creating at the intersection of stories and systems,” and they made several related recent hires—all will hold the group executive creative director title, which remains unusual in the industry—at the agency’s flagship office in New York.
