T&Pm founder Johnny Hornby has been moved on to the executive committee at owner WPP, which completed its full acquisition of the agency in November.<\/p>\n

From this summer Hornby will be CEO of WPP\u2019s Specialist Communications agency division, which includes agencies like CMI, Design Bridge and Landor, while remaining CEO at T&Pm. The new role seems to be a lot about integrating WPP\u2019s Open AI platform into the suite of agencies \u2013 something that the 100% sale of T&Pm was designed to facilitate, and Hornby has been pretty successful with at T&Pm.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

WPP has had a pretty dismal 2025<\/a> so far, with like-for-like revenues down 2.8% in Q1; the Specialist Communications division was down 1.2%, so could be said to be doing marginally better than the group as a whole.<\/p>\n

Hornby\u2019s proven business and client handling skills will come in useful, and the new position will perhaps keep him in the running as a successor to WPP\u2019s current CEO, Mark Read. At the Specialist Communications division, Hornby succeeds Dominic Grainger, who held the from 2019 and has a background in sports marketing.<\/p>\n

By keeping his CEO role at T&Pm, Hornby is maintaining some consistency at the agency, which CEO Sarah Golding recently quit<\/a> after 23 years.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
