About me

After attaining his post-graduate degree in Marketing in 1989, Jim Bolton worked in Building Maintenance at many post-production houses in London. Switching to the more glamorous side of advertising in 1991, Jim started his career as a freelance Creative, working at Grey, Saatchi and Saatchi, McCanns and BMP. He joined

HHCL in 1993, creating some of the agency's most iconic work for Blackcurrant Tango, the AA, Mercury,

Lego, BHS, Mazda and Birdseye. Jim has won every national and international advertising award, including

D&AD Silvers, BTAA Gold and Grand Prix, Creative Circle, Gold and Platinum, and Cannes Silvers and Golds.
