Jon is Director of Digital at Leonard Cheshire and a long‑standing leader in digital transformation across charities, humanitarian organisations and welfare organisations.
Jon’s work is driven by a deep interest in human‑centred design, AI strategy and leadership, and supporting non‑profits to adopt digital tools in ways that are ethical, effective and grounded in real user needs. He brings a calm, collaborative and people‑first approach to digital change, helping organisations navigate complexity and deliver technology that genuinely serves communities.
Before joining Leonard Cheshire, Jon worked as an independent Digital Strategy Consultant, advising charities on digital priorities, roadmaps and more agile, insight‑driven ways of working. This followed almost twelve years at the British Red Cross, where he held senior roles including Head of Digital, Head of Fundraising Innovation and Senior Technology Business Partner. Across these positions he led major digital engagement, platform development and service transformation programmes, and played a key role in aligning technology investment with organisational strategy.
