Jeremy has spent over two decades managing, leading, founding and growing marketing agencies. He started his career in the hybrid world of charity marketing at Barnardo Publications, the mail order arm of Barnardo's, which he says “was a wonderful personal playground as I was able to learn about direct marketing, customer services, fulfilment, warehousing, people management and IT”. He was poached to transfer the success of Barnardo's to Oxfam Trading, and in the early ‘80s was invited by Smith Bundy & Partners, to become their MD.
After 12 years of building Smith Bundy into one of the most respected and successful DM agencies in the UK, Jeremy sold the business to Carlson, becoming Managing Director of Carlson. This became an agency of over 200 people. Jeremy then went on to rebuild the UK arm of 141, a global communications agency, bringing in Paul Kitcatt as Creative Director.
In 2001 he introduced “the three smartest and nicest people I've ever worked with” to each other: Paul Kitcatt, Vonnie Alexander and Marc Nohr, and suggested they start an agency: Kitcatt Nohr Alexander Shaw.
Jeremy is now Commercial Director of Kitcatt Nohr Digitas. He is also a member of the IPA’s Direct Marketing Group.
