Grace Francis, global chief creative and design officer, and Jamie Mancini, executive creative director and global brand PR lead, have departed WongDoody.

Francis joined the Infosys-owned agency in March 2022 to attract creative talent and lead global studios in North America, Europe, Asia and India. They departed in May, according to their LinkedIn profile.

They were not immediately available to discuss their next role.

Francis was named to Campaign UK’s 40 Over 40 list and helmed WongDoody’s global rebrand to package its tech capabilities.

Before WongDoody, they served as chief experience officer at Accenture Song, then Karmarama, where they were responsible for growing the agency’s experience practice for nearly two years beginning in June 2020.

Mancini announced his departure from the agency in a LinkedIn post on Friday.

He joined WongDoody in September 2022, following Francis from Accenture Song where he served as creative director starting in July 2018.

He said he will focus on overseeing creative, marketing and communications at beverage brand Allora, where he serves as cofounder and creative director.

The digital creative agency has more than 20 offices and 2,000 workers worldwide. It was shortlisted as Campaign US’ 2024 Digital Innovation Agency of the Year.
