Con Williamson has become a bigger player at a smaller agency.

The outgoing creative chief at the New York headquarters of Saatchi & Saatchi is the new chief creative officer of Erwin Penland, a unit of Interpublic Group's Hill Holliday. He'll be based in New York and work across business in both New York and the agency's home office of Greenville, S.C.

As CCO, Williamson succeeds the Greenville-based Andy Mendelsohn, who is leaving the shop after more than a decade.

At Saatchi, where he spent about three and a half years, Williamson led a department of about 85 at a global agency that employs about 325 in New York.
