Word on the street
“Jack is a absolute pleasure to work with. Not only is he full of smart, simple solutions to often big complicated briefs, he can also be relied upon to keep a keen eye on the small details when putting together creative presentations.
He is attentive, clear, articulate and I had every confidence in him presenting to senior clients and overseeing shoots which he took in his stride.
Can we have more Jacks please.”
Adam King | Creative Director at Ogilvy (Social and Content)
“Jack is an incredibly skilled conceptual copywriter. He is a methodical thinker; precise and detail focused, with an ability to problem solve and solution find - making him a credit to his team. He always turns his hand to proactive thinking and finds opportunities to create even in briefs of limitation. He is trusted, solid, goes the extra mile to deliver, and has natural leadership qualities. Writes a knockout script, too (and makes it look easy).”
Jenna Adamson | Creative Director at Ogilvy
“Jack is great. A very unassuming, but highly creative individual. He’s a grafter too. Working hard to hone his copy until it’s right. I’ve loved working with him because he has a very rare quality in a creative these days. He listens. And he doesn’t just do what you ask. He distills the feedback and comes back with something that exceeds expectations. Get him in. You won’t regret it.”
Stephen (Sid) Gordon | Creative Director at RAPP
“Just wanted to say how much I rate Jack. He came in as a writer on my team a few months ago, and he's been impressive from the get-go. He totally nailed the Virgin Media tone of voice, which many writers fail to do. His work was always bang on and his proactive concept work got the attention of our CDs. So much so that they nabbed him from my team into theirs (grrrrrr). He then teamed up with an art director he'd never worked with before and, together, they delivered a huge project for Virgin against very tight deadlines. Throughout the project, Jack remained calm and produced consistently excellent work that never failed to make me smile. I can't wait to have him back in my team. And if anyone else gets the opportunity to work with him, grab it!”
Julie Adams | Head of Copy at RAPP
“I could waffle on for ages with this recommendation for Jack but won't, there's no need. I can sum him up in a few words:
Creative. Talented. Conscientious.
Going. Far.”
Gary Devlin | Creative Director at Kitty
“Jack is a great conceptual creative and skilled writer who always gets under the skin of the problem at hand and comes up with new, interesting perspectives and ideas. He also has a talent for long writing and has a strategic head – which is a huge bonus for a creative!”
