He leaves Saatchi & Saatchi New York for new role

Taras Wayner, the creative leader who may be best known for his contributions to R/GA’s “Love Has No Labels,” is joining Wunderman Thompson as the agency’s chief creative officer in North America. Wayner is departing Saatchi & Saatchi New York, where he was in the same role for a little over a year.
