What's happening at Jonas

Jonas take on Food Manufature team at 5-a-side...

This week Jonas took on the might of the 'Food Manufacture' 5-a-side team.  Jonas fielded a strong side including Operations Team Manager and ex Chelsea ladies star Kyproulla Loizou.  Jonas got off to a strong start and soon raced in to a commanding lead.  Rob 'the wall' Hill was unbeatable in goal much to the frustration of the persistent 'Len Beckett' and the cheering William Reed faithful, although bizarrely Hill eventually turned in to his own net after a freak deflected Beckett shot.  Jonas continued to score freely and eventually ran out 14-4 winners.  Any other FMCG industry challengers please email agrainger@jonas.co.uk

2 new consultants join the team...

After September's office move, October see's the addition of 2 new consultants to the team.  Manpreet Mangat joins the Retail Team and Liz Lake will be working in our commercial area.  We wish them both the best of luck in there future career with Jonas.  No doubt you'll be hearing from them soon.

Adam Evans joins Jonas from Hutchinson...

Adam has just joined the Jonas Technical Team.  Some of you may have dealt with Adam while he was working with our interim arm 'Hutchinson'.  Adam has just relocated from Bath to London so we will all be working hard to make sure he settles in well with us down here in the big smoke!

New member of the team…

Owen Tamsitt has joined the Retail Team.  He will be recruiting Supply Chain professionals for our retail clients.  Not only will he be a valuable addition to the retail team, but, he should also bolster the Jonas golf team.  His current handicap of 4 had no part in the decision to hire him!!  Does anyone want to challenge Jonas to a match?

‘Maurice Jonas’ memorial golf day…

June saw the inaugural Maurice Jonas golf day.  In a tightly fought competition our Managing Director Adam Grainger walked away with the coveted plaque with a winning score of 39 points beating off some close competition from our very own NPD specialist Tom Apperley (38 points).
The plans for next year’s competition are already underway.  We are planning to expand next year’s competition in a bid to raise money for Cancer Research.  For more information please email agrainger@jonas.co.uk

Chelsea ladies Football team…

Kyproulla Loizou has had another successful season representing the Chelsea Ladies 1st team in the FA Women’s Premier League.  Arsenal Ladies were the run away leaders again this year but Chelsea are hoping to build on their recent promotion to the top flight and challenge near the top of the table next season.
