DDB is seeking a new president for its San Francisco office, as Mike Harris heads to a production company in Los Angeles.

Harris (pictured here) had led the office—and a now closed satellite in Los Angeles—for two years. The L.A. shingle serviced the agency's Wells Fargo account, which shifted to BBDO in March.

Details of Harris' new job were not immediately available. But he's expected to assume a senior management role at his new company. Before DDB, Harris was chief strategy officer at twofifteenmccann in San Francisco, where he spent seven years.

DDB North American president Mark O'Brien, who recruited Harris in 2012, credited him with changing the way the office works and thinks.
