John Vallis

About

John grew up in the East London/Essex borders and from an early age displayed a keen interest in anything creative from model making, fashion, dance, art and photography.

He started his career in the City on a business acceleration programme, working through various head office roles within the NatWest Group. Staying within the group for over 12 years, his career developed within the marketing departments of Retail Banking and Card Services where he was responsible for the launch of NatWest Black. 

During this time John continued to personally develop, completely furter education in Design Management and Interior and Retail Brand Consultancy.

Gaining much experience and with a desire to make a difference, John made the transition over to the agency side working with the likes of Columns and Davies Baron. John quickly started to show signs of entrepreneurship and started a brand development practice in London and Doha.

John's experience within Brand Environments has seen him work on many global brands such as British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Alfred Dunhill, Morgan Stanley, Bupa and Mowasalat (Qatar Transport Network).

John loves to travel and is keen to capture those memories and inspiration and trends through the lens of his camera. His passion for everything creative has also taken him down the road of body art where he has started to become a keen tattoo collector.
