Mark Hansen is heading back to Chicago to do what he has never done before: Run a department.
Next month, Hansen, who since 2009 has managed accounts like Gatorade and Visa at the Playa del Rey, Calif., office of TBWA\Chiat\Day, will join DDB Chicago as director of account management. The move marks his second tour in the Windy City: from 2006-09, he was a group management director at JWT Chicago.
In his new role, Hansen will lead a department of about 65 and join a managment team that includes CEO Peter McGuinness, chief creative officer Ewan Paterson and chief strategy officer John Kottman.
The agency's accounts include State Farm, McDonald's, Mars and Safeway.
