Reports are that executive vice president of Electronic Arts’s Play Label Jeff Karp is leaving the company after 11 years to join Zynga. He was most recently in charge of EA’s social efforts and he joins former EA chief operating officer John Schappert at the social giant.
This promotion comes after a management shuffle at EA that saw executives like Peter Moore, Andrew Wilson and Frank Gibeau promoted. Karp is among the many high profile departures from EA of late, including NBA Jam co-creator Mark Turmell, Madden producer Phil Frazier, an unnamed EA Tiburon boss before that, and EA Easy Studio boss Ben Cousins resigning one day after Visceral Games boss Scot Amos.
