AJ Jones Joins McCann UK as Chief Strategy Officer

AJ Jones has stepped into a new leadership role as the Chief Strategy Officer at McCann UK. She announced the move on LinkedIn, marking an exciting new chapter in her career. The appointment highlights McCann UK’s commitment to strengthening its strategic leadership and driving impactful work across its network.

Expressing excitement on her new role, Jones said in a LinkedIn post, “A new adventure awaits. Can't wait to dive in with the stellar team across the UK., And be able to call "poutine" chips and gravy again”.

Harjot Singh, Global Chief Strategy Officer, McCann & McCann Worldgroup, said, “It's tempting to chart AJ Jones's career by geography - from Bonis Hall to Bucharest, Tanzania to Toronto. But her journey has never really been about places. It's been about people. The northern generosity of Manchester, the creative magnetism of our teams in Eastern Europe, the quiet strength and kindness she helped shape in Canada".

"AJ is one of our people, shaped by our people, and this is the next step on our journey together. After a transformative stint in Canada where she helped lead McCann to Agency of the Year at the Effies, Top 5 in North America, and back-to-back Top 3 Creative Agency of the Year rankings, we are thrilled to welcome her back to the UK”, he added.
