Mark Glynne-Jones
Since graduating in 1980 with an Honours Degree in Visual Communications I have worked with a number of the UK’s leading marketing and design consultancies, culminating in the role of Creative Director with an Omnicom Group Agency, a global leader in marketing and creative communications.
In 1994 I founded the Jump To consultancy. During my career I’ve enjoyed working with leading global brands including Reckitt Benckiser, Toyota, Citroen, KFC, Panasonic, Ubisoft Entertainment and Heineken International as well as many of the UK’s leading FMCG brands both large and small including Tyrrells, Buckingham Foods, New Covent Garden Food Co and Marstons Brewing, supporting all brand activities across digital and real world environments. Joint founder of The Food Funnel, a unique business building network forged through an active community of like-minded artisan producers, food experts, retailers and media influencers.
“In the early nineties I left a large agency and scarily found myself in a studio with great clients and a team of young freelance creatives but little knowledge about running a business, it very quickly became obvious the secret of survival let alone success was knowing when and where to draw upon others expertise and experience.
School for Creative Start Ups is a fabulous resource for those looking to do their own thing in 2012 and beyond and I’m very excited to be involved and look forward to supporting in any way I can.”
