Director of Marketing – MarketingI’m Chris Davies, Director of Marketing here at JBSEEL. I’ve been with the company for two years, and before that, my career was in marketing across different industries—publishing at Reed Elsevier, automotive with the RAC and AA, and financial Services at BNP Paribas.
When I was approached for this role, it was a complete surprise given my background. But they were looking for fresh perspectives beyond Cambridge and the education sector—a philosophy that still holds today. And I’m glad I took the leap.
Moving to Cambridge has been one of my best decisions, despite living in "enemy territory"—Oxfordshire! The strength of the Cambridge brand is unlike anything I’ve experienced, even in huge multinationals. It gives us a major advantage in generating new business opportunities.
But more than that, it’s the culture that makes this place special. It’s collaborative, supportive, and driven by a shared passion for creating a real-world impact in over 150 countries. In my two years here, we’ve seen record growth each year, surpassing profit targets while maintaining employee engagement levels most companies would envy. And with the launch of CJBS Online in 2026, we’re poised for even bigger things.
