Jon Bond, co-founder of Kirshenbaum Bond Senecal + Partners, has left the agency he helped create 23 years ago.
Many observers had expected Bond’s departure after corporate parent MDC Partners paid the remaining earn-outs to the agency co-chairman and his creative partner Richard Kirshenbaum as 2010 began. Kirshenbaum is staying at the shop, a KBS+P representative said.
Bond (pictured), in his early 50s, could not immediately be reached for comment.
“Jon Bond has left the management of Kirshenbaum Bond Senecal + Partners to pursue other entrepreneurial goals. We will always consider Jon a great friend, and we wish him much success in all of his future endeavors,” said a statement released by the agency.
