Jonathan Leake

Jonathan has been referred to as "a sponge for knowledge " and a "master of details" which makes for some real creative guise.

After graduating Ripon College, Jonathan landed a gig at DraftFCB. Here, Jonathan was exposed to the many rigors of a global advertising agency & worked with clients including British Airways, General Motors, Cadillac, M&M, Milky Way, USPS and Jack Daniel's. But lets face it, being one of 5000+ employees worldwide, doesn’t make it easy to make your mark in the world of marketing.

In 2000, Jonathan co-founded JB Chicago, most recently serving as the VP, Director of Digital Strategy & Operations, where he fused technology & business process into strategic & digital marketing solutions to forge lifetime brand advocates & loyalists for clients.

2014 & 2015 have been years of great change and excitement. In 2014, Jonathan joined Havas Worldwide as a Digital Strategy Director leveraging strategy, digital, and client relationships to craft great moments across digital and social media. In 2015, Jonathan teamed up with DirectBuy as Director of Digital Marketing. At DirectBuy Jonathan leads omni-channel digital conversion strategies to drive new and retained business growth. This includes, but is not limited to, defining digital consumer journey's, developing digital marketing campaigns and systems to drive marketing programs forward leveraging big-data.
