Null Replaces Webster at Y&R

Agency veteran Laurie Null will take over as president of Y&R Group Detroit operations following the departure of president Michael Webster.

Null was most recently managing director of the Detroit operations of Y&R’s Impiric division. Prior to that, she was responsible for national advertising and regional marketing for the agency’s Lincoln Mercury and Lincoln Mercury dealer associations.

Webster joined the agency 16 months ago from InterOne Marketing Group (formerly Ross Roy Communications). He said he has not yet decided what his future holds.

Webster attributed his abrupt departure to the change in Y&R’s ownership.
