Gee Jeffery & Partners has followed through with plans to open a San Francisco office and has hired two vice presidents to lead the operation.

Shortly after winning the estimated $25 million Covad Communications account in December, the Toronto-based agency vowed to establish the outpost to handle the Santa Clara, Calif., client. Eric Thompson, vp, ac-count director, and Fernando Arriola, vp, media director, are the sole staffers, although the shop is looking to hire two senior-level creatives.

Thompson, 33, was previously a vp at Publicis & Hal Riney in San Francisco.
