I combine a deep understanding of UX, design and digital, with thirteen years of technology expertise, to lead teams in the creation of applications, interactive experiences, and tools that empower patients and health care professionals, for the worlds leading pharmaceutical firms.
Jonathan is a fantastic Technology Director. He is knowledgeable across many parts of the industry and has a positive attitude that helps infuse others with the reassurance that solutions can be found and achieved, if by thinking from a different point of view.
Having extensive experience within the industry has allowed him to keep abreast of any changes within the market and to move the team to where we should be focusing our efforts on next. His humour is second to none and makes every day interesting.
It was a fantastic experience to work & learn alongside him, hopefully in the future our paths will cross again.
Jonathan is an excellent leader of both department and programme, with the ability to both define and steer projects in the right direction, for the benefit of the business and the client.
Having worked with Jonathan in a busy project to project environment, Johnathan has the ability to be flexible in thinking, approach and availability, while having the technical expertise and foresight to guarantee successful programme outcomes. I would always be glad of the opportunity to work with Jonathan.
Jonathan is great to work with and a highly competent leader.
He combines deep technical expertise with strategic and creative capabilities - a combination that is hard to find. I have had the pleasure of working on several projects with Jonathan during the three years we worked together, from digital projects to thought-leadership articles, and he always delivered above and beyond.
I worked with Jonathan on a range of website projects from client brief through to final deployment, each with a number of challenging variables and deadlines. At each stage of the projects, he always made himself available to advise on platform capabilities, feasibility of requested functionality and build approach, which helped to get projects up and running with as much technical foresight as possible.
Not only is Jonathan expertly knowledgeable in all things tech, he explains complex aspects in simple terms and ensures that best practices are adhered to across the content, creative, UX and development teams, which reduces the risk of discovering issues during the build phase. He is truly every PM's dream. It was an absolute pleasure working with Jonathan and hope that we can work together again.
Put simply, Jonathan is one of the most talented and committed people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Over the circa 7 years we worked together, three things impressed me most. First, Jonathan has that rare ability to translate complex technologies into simple yet engaging concepts for the rest of us.
Second, Jonathan is one of the most committed colleagues I've ever worked with. He genuinely cares about his work and his colleagues and he'll always go the extra mile. Finally, he's just a really bright chap, generally! Stick Jonathan in a meeting room on almost anything tech/digital/ux/creative and he'll have not just a view, but a very considered view. He's a major asset to anyone lucky enough to have him.
Jonathan adds tremendous value to not just a department, but a company as a whole. His years of experience shines through and is demonstrated in true strengths in terms of leadership, knowledge and business acumen.
He lives and breathes digital, not just from a technical perspective, but also a high standard and understanding of design, interfaces & user experience.
Having spent many years in the front line of software development in the past, he's able to connect with engineers on a level many managers struggle to achieve, which allows him to really drive and push his colleagues to success.
He's always bringing fresh ideas to the table, eager to get involved in both technical and business challenges, with a extraordinary level of commitment. He would be a true asset to any team.
Jonathan is brilliant. One of those rare breeds of Developer/technologists who understands design as much as he understands development. An intuitive and creative thinker, who knows how to push development (both people he manages and other functions) to achieve the best results. Jonathan thinks very logically, as you'd expect from a Technology Director and he's never afraid to challenge work that is sub-optimal or ask the awkward questions that need to be asked. Beyond that, he's very inquisitive, always staying ahead of trends, and sharing best practice for others to learn from. Underpinning all of this is a genuine concern for delivering great work, for pushing his colleagues and the company he works for to always be future-thinking, and an overarching desire to create a working environment that is fun, engaging and employee centric. He has exacting standards but these are standards he also holds himself to, and he'd be an asset wherever he works.
You would struggle to find a more engaged and driven individual than Jonathan. His desire to constantly evolve and improve is impressive. He aims to inspire those around him whether that's by introducing new technologies or using the latest working practices. He has tremendous business acumen, and paired with his exhaustive knowledge of various frameworks he is able to provide accurate time and cost estimates to ensure an accurate scope of work. Jonathan provides all teams with technical advice and support, also overseeing each project from conception through to completion. He analyses and assesses requirements over the course of each job and ensures each asset is delivered on time, on budget and on brief.
