Ad agency Celtic Chicago has promoted Jim Heitzman to president. Heitzman has been with Celtic Chicago for six years, most recently serving as vice president of advertising.

In his new role, Heitzman will manage all advertising operations at the agency.

Prior to joining Celtic Chicago six years ago, Heitzman held account positions at StudioNorth and gyro/HSR where his client lists included Leica Microsystems, Hewitt Investments, SIRVA, LaSalle Bank, Discover Financial Services and more.

Heitzman is credited with driving much of Celtic’s growth in recent years. “Jim’s ability to deliver a holistic view of our integrated programs coupled with a passionate commitment to our clients’ successes will be the foundation of his leadership at Celtic,” stated Celtic’s CEO, Marlene Byrne, who going forward will focus on new business activities and the expansion of the agency’s branding division.
