About Jon
Agile Coach, Certified Scrum Trainer & Mentor
As a seasoned Agile Coach, I’ve had the privilege of leading some major digital transformation projects and facilitating the adoption of Agile and DevOps practices. I’m passionate about helping my clients achieve their goals and delivering top-notch products.
My approach to coaching combines my expertise with a personal touch. I believe that effective leadership starts with building strong relationships, and I work hard to get to know my clients so I can better understand their unique needs and challenges.
When I’m not in the office, you’ll probably find me indulging in my two other passions: property development and aviation. I love getting my hands dirty on building sites, and I also have a goal to get my Private Pilot’s Licence. And when I need to cool off, I head to Wales to take a dip in an icy lake.
An outcome-focussed Scrum Alliance Certified Enterprise Agile Coach (CEC) and Certified Team Agile Coach (CTC) with a passion for developing the humans that build amazing products.

As a seasoned professional with years of experience, I have worked with clients from various industries and regions worldwide. From Telecoms to Banking, Government to Retail, Marketing to Pharmaceutical, Defence to Renewable Energy, and Fintech to Fashion, I have seen businesses’ common challenges in their quest for agility.
I am passionate about helping my clients overcome these obstacles by working closely with their teams and the systems they operate in.
I aim to build trust and create connected teams that can deliver exceptional results, delivering products that truly delight their customers. With my extensive experience and deep understanding of the complexities involved in business, I am confident that I can help you achieve your goals and take your business to the next level.

Digital & Physical Products
I’ve had the experience of working with some of the biggest brands in the world and leading teams to create truly amazing products. From early java-based mobile apps to interactive global experiences and beyond, I’ve been a part of some seriously cool projects.
Take my work with Beats By Dre, for example. My team helped build an unprecedented social following by pioneering influencer marketing and fan-created content. The huge launch event for Nike’s physical products in London, used massive data visualisation projection mapping driven by live attendee data to bring the event to life.
I’ve also been a part of some unique projects, like supporting Tempest programme, a next generation fighter jet with BAE Systems and even launching the vegan meatball marina for Subway. These show my ability to tackle diverse and challenging projects, and bring teams together to achieve great things.
But it’s not just about creating flashy, attention-grabbing products. I’ve also worked in large banking enterprises to drive big transformations, and have coached leaders to help them reach their full potential. I understand the complexities of working in regulated industries and the importance of building high-performing, agile teams.
