A London-based graphics professional, Jonathan has worked both in-house and as a freelancer, applying his creative skills and technical know-how to an extensive list of high-profile clients across print publishing, TV advertising and digital media.

After graduating from Bournemouth & Poole College of Art and Design he spent some time as a children’s book illustrator and ad artworker before landing a role as graphic designer for the much-loved Charing Cross Road music shop Turnkey / SohoSoundhouse.

That lead on to a varied career freelancing for the likes of veterans charity SSAFA Forces Help and agencies such as McCann-Erikson and AKA London before he embarked on a long-term position as Senior Retoucher for John Brown Media (John Lewis Edition, Waitrose Food, Rolls-Royce, Aston Martin, Arla, Heals, Royal British Legion etc).

With an ongoing desire to expand his skills, the role continued to evolve, incorporating creative retouching, artworking, animation, 3D, video editing, sound design and motion graphics. In 2020 Jon became Senior Motion Designer for the content marketing team – now under the banner of Dentsu Creative – working for clients such as Apple, Asahi, NatWest, HSBC, Nivea, Post Office and AMEX among others.

Jon lives in North East London with his wife and two daughters and moonlights as a pedal steel guitarist in several country & western bands.
