Jonathan has lived in South Norfolk all his life. He attended school in Long Stratton and now lives locally near Shotesham with his partner. He has two grown-up children.

Jonathan made a career in the industrial plumbing and welding business. His company has worked on some of the most prestigious projects across region and he spent time offshore in the North Sea in safety-critical locations which require an organised approach and attention to detail.

He is concerned about the environment and has been in a position to ensure that a large number of prominent buildings have been installed with the latest energy-efficiency and monitoring technology to keep energy use and emissions low whilst maintaining a comfortable living environment for occupants.

He says “I have the energy and commitment to be a Councillor. My experience of business, industry and employing people means I know how to build and motivate teams to get the best possible outcome. I want to help the Council to run as the team that puts residents first and works smarter to solve people’s problems.
