It has been reported that Elmwood's creative director Richard Scholey has been lined up for a move to The Chase.

Scholey was still working at Elmwood's Leeds office today but has been tipped to move to Manchester along with Carl Leek, formerly head of the design company Hutchinson Leek, and now a creative director at The Chase.

The Drum has contacted The Chase and Elmwood but so far neither side has confirmed the move.

The new arrivals would join The Chase at a transitional time for the design agency. It was recently announced that The Chase would be incorporating fellow Hasgrove-owned agency Amaze's advertising division into its operation.
