The Lion’s Share was established in June 2018 by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) with FINCH, Mars, Incorporated, Nielsen and BBDO as founding members. The fund tackles the crisis in biodiversity and climate by asking advertisers worldwide to donate 0.5 percent of their media spend for each advertisement that features an animal. Those funds are pooled and distributed to projects globally that have a significant impact on animal conservation, habitat loss, and the climate crisis. The Lion’s Share contributes to the Sustainable Development Goals, the UN’s universal call to action to end poverty and protect the planet. Prior to joining The Lion’s Share, AJ was General Manager at Clemenger BBDO and led the Mars business across all three of its segments; Petcare, Confectionary, and Food. During this time, he has helped turn the business around, delivering world-class work that has been recognized at major global creative and effectiveness award ceremonies. Prior to joining BBDO, AJ led the Xbox EMEA business and Pandora account globally at McCann and his work there helped in McCann becoming the most awarded agency at Cannes Lions.
