By Kiran Aditham 

After a five-and-a-half year run at Draftfcb, Simon Calvert has jumped over to Digitas to take on the role of head of worldwide strategic planning. Calvert, who will continue to be based in London, most recently served as global chief planning officer at Draft, which promoted him to said post from executive strategy director back in 2009.

During his 20-plus-year career, Calvert spent time on the account side at the likes of McCann Erickson and Euro RSGC’s London officers before moving on to the head of strategy post at Proximity, where he spent two years prior to joining Draftfcb.
