James' early career and introduction to the world of Cyber Security

James’ first introduction to working life officially started in 2017 at a distinguished Oxford-based marketing agency, Mass Impressions. James and the team oversaw the transition from a web development-based business approach to a marketing-based business model due to the needs of their clientele. 


This transitional period introduced James to the world of marketing as he embarked on the journey of mastering many of the core components of digital marketing such as SEO, social media management, analytics and reporting, photo/video editing, and content marketing.

Newfound passion for cyber security

After returning to his hometown in the Midlands, James identified and developed a burning passion for Cyber Security. Learning from his past experiences and with the introduction of the GDPR legislation, James understood the potential risks the future may hold as the world continues to become more dependent on technology. 

To kickstart his way into the industry, James undertook a 6-month training course to achieve a certificate in Information Security Management Principles (CISMP). This passion and commitment to the world of Cyber Security is exactly why we at JC Cyber Security believe James will be an incredible fit for our growing team of cyber experts.
