NEW YORK Rich Hamilton, CEO of Publicis Groupe’s ZenithOptimedia Americas, is taking a leave of absence for personal reasons, effective immediately, the agency said.

Tim Jones, chief strategy officer at ZenithOptimedia USA, has been promoted to the new position of CEO at ZenithOptimedia USA. He assumes most of Hamilton’s duties.

Jones, a 20-year Zenith veteran, has been CSO for the past year, with responsibility for business development, communications planning and the magazine group.

Key areas overseen by Hamilton that Jones will not be responsible for, at least for now, are Canada and Latin America.
