Campaign’s Creative Faces to Watch 2025 – Jonathan Jose, Mid-Weight Designer, JWI

Age: 27

Nominated by Benjamin Thomas, Creative Director:

Jonathan isn’t just a talented designer – he’s a creative problem-solver with a sharp eye and a knack for turning ideas into something special. What really sets him apart is his mindset. He listens, adapts and uses every challenge as a chance to improve, always coming back with work that’s smarter, stronger and more considered.

He knows when to push creative boundaries and when to refine. He works closely with the team, brings fresh thinking to every project, and always considers the bigger picture. This recognition wouldn’t just celebrate his talent – it would reflect his growth, resilience and the bright future ahead.

Career highlights

With five years in the creative industry—four of them at JW International Advertising—I’ve grown into a dynamic mid-weight designer with a strategic role in conceptualisation and visualisation. I don’t just design; I think, strategise and solve. Whether it’s design, animation, or 3D visualisation, I love bringing ideas to life, experimenting with new tools, and pushing creative boundaries. For me, every project is a chance to create something fresh, exciting, and insight-driven that truly connects with the audience. Because let’s be real, if it doesn’t spark joy (or at least a double tap), is it even good design?

Guiding principles

I believe in pursuing excellence, embracing continuous learning, and adapting to change. Collaboration and teamwork fuel my creativity, and I’m always eager to learn from others. Striving to set industry standards, I focus on delivering high-quality work efficiently. Above all, I value honesty, transparency, and taking ownership while embracing feedback with an open mind.

Side hustle

Creativity isn’t just my job; it sneaks into everything I do! I love cooking, and half the fun is making dishes look like they belong in a magazine (thank you, inner designer). I’m also obsessed with cameras and capturing landscapes, always chasing the perfect, picturesque shot.
