DDB names heirs to Ken Kaess.(Chuck Brymer )(Bob Scarpelli )
Chuck Brymer takes the reins as chief executive and president, while Bob Scarpelli becomes chairman.
The Omnicom chief, John Wren, has promoted Chuck Brymer, the Interbrand group chairman and group chief executive, to president and chief executive of DDB Worldwide, following the death of Ken Kaess last week.
The group has also broadened the responsibilities of its chief creative officer, Bob Scarpelli, to include the role of chairman of DDB Worldwide.
He will replace Keith Reinhard, who is stepping aside to become chairman emeritus.
'One of Ken's legacies as a chief executive is the management team, including the executive committee, he assembled at DDB,' Wren explained. 'The appointment of Chuck will carry on that collaborative spirit.'
Brymer said: 'Under Ken's leadership, DDB has expanded into customer relationship management, retail activation and interactive. It is known for its creativity and ability to produce powerful ideas and transform them into creative business solutions.'
The gap left by Brymer at the design agency Interbrand will be filled by Jez Frampton, the chief executive of Interbrand London.
