Clems Melbourne hires suit to lead NAB business

Clemenger BBDO Melbourne has hired a group account director to lead the NAB business. Lee Simpson joins from Abbot Mead vickers BBDO in London.

The announcement: 

Clemenger BBDO Melbourne has appointed Lee Simpson as Group Account Director on the award-winning NAB business.

Simpson joins the agency from the UK’s most awarded agency, AMV BBDO. There, his main responsibility was the Camelot National Lottery business, including the highly emotive ‘Life changing’ campaign. Vastly different to Australian lotteries, Camelot ploughs the profits back into national infrastructure and charity projects, at a rate of £30 million a week, and contributed £2.2 billion to the staging of the Olympic and Paralympic Games in London. Alongside Camelot, he also led part of AMV’s Diageo business.
