WPP Group CEO Martin Sorrell doesn’t sound happy about some of the world’s biggest advertisers’ decision to regularly delay paying agencies weeks longer than before. “I don’t think our purpose is about banking — we’re not about a bank — or extended payment terms or agreeing to supply payment terms in low-interest conditions,” he told Ad Age in this interview during the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

Alastair Pegg, head of brands and marketing at Nationwide, has left the company after three and a half years at the building society.

We’ll try to make this quick, but yes, Droga5 NY confirms that Daniel Gonda will be joining the agency, effective July 1, as group account director. The inquisitive-looking Gonda has spent nearly the last three years as VP/management director at Saatchi & Saatchi’s New York hub. Prior to said Publicis Groupe-owned agency, the exec had fairly lengthy, familiar stints on the account side at the likes of JWT, Euro RSCG and TAXI. Gonda’s hiring comes on the heels of Droga5 nabbing TBWA\Chiat\Day NY alum Robert Valdes as its head of interactive production. We’re checking to see what the former’s position exactly entails at camp Droga. Should have an update shortly. Update: Gonda will be overseeing Droga5′s Coke Zero and Newcastle Brown Ale accounts.
