JJ Marketing Consultancy

My knowledge and skills to date have been generated by working with some very talented people and companies who I am still in touch with today.

I started my career in market research back in 1999 with Steve Wills and Sally Webb, who now run Customer Insight Solutions. My particular focus then was on quantitative market research and computer-aided interviewing techniques.

In 2004 I moved on to work with Saul Dobney, of dobney.com where I developed further skills in putting together online surveys and a keener idea of what it is like to run your own business.

From there, I joined St. James's Place Wealth Management in 2006 as Insight Manager, within the marketing team. This is where I truly learnt how to use feedback from clients to improve the quality of the client experience and also increase the effectiveness of marketing and the whole marketing planning process.

A visit to Nepal and trek to Everest Base Camp back in 2008 was a major turning point in my life. I was captivated by how creative, colourful and passionate the Nepalese are with what little they physically have. I have since been inspired to put all my knowledge and skills to good use by sparking that creativity back here in the UK.
