We’ve received confirmation that Carl Rogers has assumed the role of executive creative director at what is now Havas Discovery, the digital/analytics/CRM arm of Havas Worldwide. Last we recall, Rogers parted ways with Grey New York, where he last served as VP/creative on the Pantene business, a year ago. Unlike what tipsters are saying, though, Rogers joining Havas Discovery was not the handiwork of the agency’s Chicago CCO, Jason Peterson, but rather Paul Marobella, president of Havas Discovery.From what we’re hearing, British native Rogers is working across offices ranging from Chicago to Baltimore.

During his career, the creative has also served as copywriter/CD at the likes of Critical Mass, StrawberryFrog and Dentsu Amsterdam.

After spending just a year as VP, creative director at Grey New York, Carl Rogers is leaving the agency and heading back to his native UK. Rogers, whose last day at Grey happens to be today, served as a global digital CD on Pantene and also worked on accounts including Ketel One, Olive Garden and Pringles during his brief stint.

Prior to Grey, Rogers spent two years across the pond as creative director and head of copy at Critical Mass Europe, leading global digital communications for Rolex, Gucci, Adidas and P&G brands. During his career, he’s served as lead copywriter at Dentsu Amsterdam and StrawberryFrog. From what we’ve been told, Rogers has nothing concrete set but will be interviewing for a few ECD positions on his home turf.
