Assignment Group head of strategy Martin Yeoman and CD Jamie Hitchcock are leaving to form their own agency, The Enthusiasts.

At deadline time, M+AD was unable to contact the decision-makers at Assignment, but chair Peter Biggs told Stop Press (M+AD rival site) that the pair will remain at Assignment until The Enthusiasts opens its doors on Friday 9 June.

“We will still be working with them very closely,” Biggs said, adding they will still be contracted by Assignment to work with several clients, ensuring that the transition runs smoothly.

“This is a grown-up solution for a grown-up agency, and it shows that we genuinely put our clients first,” he told the site.
