Digital Copywriter
Jake
A keen writer and lover of literature for as far back as he can remember, Jake started his career in PR and communications, and was lucky enough to find himself a copywriting mentor just days into his first role.
During this time, Jake would agonise over syntax, grammar, and heated debates about the Oxford comma as he quickly transitioned from a PR ‘Jack of all trades’ to a full-fledged copywriter.
In the decade since, Jake moved to London, struck out on his own, and used his words to help hundreds of creative agencies, private and public organisations, and globally-renowned brands tell human-first, jargon-free stories. Jake discovered Yardstick whilst looking for something the freelance life couldn’t offer him: that elusive team spirit.
Away from his laptop, Jake keeps himself busy by training for his next marathon, perfecting his Old Fashioned recipe, and chipping away at the never-ending renovation project he wishes he’d never started.

Jake in the spotlight
Full English or Continental?
My brain says Continental, but my heart says otherwise; you’ll rarely regret a Full English
Red or White?
I’ll always be Team Red, though I have come round to white over the past few years, much to the joy of my girlfriend. I’m happy with most reds but far pickier with whites.
Summer or Winter?
I like summer, but I love winter. Big coats, dark nights, a bit of routine? Sign me up.
Holiday Abroad or 'Staycation'?
Abroad, preferably a city break. I can’t sit still, so cramming as much food, wine, and sightseeing as humanly possible into a few days is perfect for my ADHD brain.
Fiction or Non-Fiction
Exclusively fiction, bar the one non-fiction health book I’ll read a year (and make my whole personality for the following six months). Last year it was longevity, this year it’s gut health.
