Jon is a multi-internationally awarded Creative Director with 20 years’ experience working in Australian and UK markets on some of the world's most iconic brands.
In his career so far, Jon has made rival rugby league players talk about their feelings and advertised broadband speeds through sign language. He’s brought the Spirit of Australia back from COVID, helped parents of premature babies celebrate their little miracles with pride, made hands the face of a university and challenged charity convention with a simple, impossible dilemma.
With a passion for visual craft and a knack for unexpected thinking, Jon’s work has been recognised globally across every major award show, including D&AD, Cannes Lions, One Show, Clios, Webbys, Effies, Spikes Asia, AdFest and AWARD.
In his spare time Jon is also an award-winning children’s book illustrator, collecting the Illustrated Children’s Book of the Year at ABDA and the Honour Book for Young Readers at the Children's Book Council of Australia.
