Advanced Engineering:
"JKC’s knowledge of the ACR industry and understanding of our products means they’re able to effectively communicate the technicalities, and highlight the advantages."

JKC is not your average marketing agency. We don’t schmooze. We don’t chase work from everywhere and everyone. Rather, we prefer to develop close relationships with a select group of clients who offer something special in their own chosen sector – as we do in ours.

As a result, most of our clients have been with us for many years, taking us into their confidence, treating us as a trusted extension of their own in-house team.

Full service… at your service

Perhaps you’re launching a new product or want to expand overseas. Maybe you need to raise your profile in a particular market… or you’re already well established but want to translate that awareness into leads.

We can help.

Importantly, because our expertise spans so many different sectors and marketing disciplines, we're able to take a co-ordinated, joined-up approach, making the most of every opportunity, squeezing every drop of value from your budget.

Meet the JKC team

John Knowles
Founder and Director

Over a long and award-winning career in advertising and public relations – working for many blue chip clients in the B2B sector – John has earned a reputation for his inspirational ideas, wisdom and integrity.
A highly talented copywriter and the agency’s leading strategist, John gave the agency its name and, over the years, a reputation for great insights, highly effective campaigns… and for a willingness to go the extra mile on behalf of every client.
Cat Allen
Account Director

As our lead Account Director, Cat has more than ten year’s experience in client liaison and communications management, bringing to her role a diverse range of marketing skills allied to an unerring instinct for what will really work.
Highly organised and motivated, she is loved and respected in equal measure by clients who appreciate her tenacity, energy and ability to get things done. With Cat, it’s all about the results.
Sarah Cave
Finance Director

At the hub of our organisation sits Sarah, our Financial Director and HR specialist. Her wit, wisdom and administration skills are legendary. So too is her ability to maintain and control client budgets so that everything remains on track and with no surprises.
Her dedication to fitness and running jaw-droppingly long distances is matched only by her insight and ability to remain calm, even when solving the most baffling problems.
Sarah Lawrence
Operations

Every business needs a Sarah… but we’ve yet to meet her match when it comes to organising colleagues in a way that makes them feel so empowered and so enthusiastic.
Combining efficiency with endless good humour she makes sure everything is where it needs to be: on time, every time. As our media liaison specialist, that means getting the right story onto the right desk to maximise coverage of your message.
Dave Chong
Creative

Accordionist. Mountaineer. Sculptor. These are just some of the words Dave knows as a copywriter.
As something of a Swiss Army Knife in the creative team, Dave's work covers everything from copy, video, graphic design, audio, web editing and more.
So if you have something you *really* need doing, then to be honest, Dave's probably quite busy… but he'll see what he can do.
Lucy Williamson
Marketing Relationship Developer

Lucy is the living embodiment of what being open, friendly and emotionally intelligent can achieve.

Responsible for building relationships with our clients’ customers she has the unerring ability to spark and sustain interest in everything imaginable: from attending events to promoting products… You name it, she can do it.

If anyone loves their job wholeheartedly, it’s Lucy. And if anyone can become familiar with your most stubborn customers it’s her.
Bow
Keyboard Assessor

Bow is one of the best respected members of the JKC team (she has claws and teeth… and isn’t afraid to use them).
Originally our packaging specialist – “no box is too small” – she now plays a very active role in monitoring the agency’s office equipment. Colleagues can expect routine and entirely unannounced interventions on keyboards, filing trays and recently vacated chairs. Resistance is futile.
Bow is currently campaigning to make the premises a safe space for cats.
Loki
Life Coach

As a junior member of the accounts department, even his fiercest critic* could never accuse Loki of lacking enthusiasm.
One of the newest and hairiest members of the team (Dave disputes this), Loki’s role is to maintain company morale. Indeed, a few moments in his company is guaranteed to make any colleague forget their problems or, indeed, how they ended up, once again, engulfed in a fur storm.

*That would be Bow
