Danny Bass, previously CEO of IPG Mediabrands, has been appointed as the new Chairman for UnLtd, the industry’s social purpose organisation supporting young people at risk.

Kerry McCabe, the Founder and previous Chairman of UnLtd will continue to serve as an UnLtd Director and take on a more active role in other UnLtd projects, including the launch of the organisation’s first B2C offering.

Bass has been a member of the UnLtd Board for over five years and will take on the role of Chairman from September 2020.

Danny Bass said:

“I am honoured to be offered the opportunity to continue the incredible work Kerry and UnLtd have achieved over the past 15 years. UnLtd continually demonstrates the impact our industry can have as a positive force for good. None more so than what Chris and the team have delivered in 2020. Our plans for 2021 and beyond are significant and reflect how we will respond to the challenges and maximise the opportunities in front of us to continue our mission of supporting young Australians at risk.”

UnLtd was founded in 2005 by Kerry McCabe, CEO of AthletesVoice and The Roar, who saw an opportunity to harness the power and resources of our industry in addressing youth disadvantage.
