Sources familiar with the matter confirm that Doug Livingston, who has spent nearly six years at Grey and was bumped up 15 months ago to EVP, director of digital integration at the New York hub, is leaving the agency for parts unknown (though we’re sure we’ll find out soon enough and we’re hearing it’s perhaps a “big job”). From what we’ve been told by sources, Grey NY is currently recruiting for a replacement for Livingston in its digital unit, which houses 110 or so staffers including directors of technology, operations, analytics and strategy.

During his last stint at Grey as EVP, Livingston oversaw digital assignments within the agency as well as digital biz dev, recruitment, and training & development efforts.
