Stat : Helped to create the best performing media channel for 6 of my homemover clients
Print Prediction: companies that win will combine rich first party data, print, merch, trading card and instore activations (retail media) into one customer experience platform. Its all about creating a physical super touchpoint. PRINT in all forms
Meet Chris Molloy — powered almost entirely by Irn-Bru and direct mail expertise. A devoted Celtic supporter, Chris knows commercial print and direct mail inside out and has probably forgotten more about print production than most people will ever learn. If it involves ink, paper, postage or precision, Chris is your man.

Print Prediction: Licensed brands to fully embrace localised POD
Say hello to Mark Blackburn, our Sales Director for Print on Demand and a passionate advocate for sustainability in print. When he’s not helping brands print smarter, Mark is usually planning his next adventure somewhere around the globe. Equal parts print expert and frequent flyer, he believes great ideas — and great print — should leave a lasting impression, not a massive footprint.
Jon Tolley
Sales Specialist - Personalised Gifts and Print on Demand
Years in the Print Game: 35
Stat : Created 1.3m personalised spoons for Kelloggs
Print Prediction: Agentic commerce is coming faster than you’d like!
Meet Jon Tolley. Jon doesn’t just work in print-on-demand and book production — some would say he’s gloriously obsessed with it. He’s been in the industry long enough to remember the very first digital presses arriving on the scene, but don’t let that fool you — Jon’s still young at heart and always excited about what’s next in print. Probably happiest when talking books, workflows or presses over a coffee.

Account Director
Years in the Print Game: 25
Stat : I am Reiki Level 2 trained!
Print Prediction: Dossier data driven AI personalisation in direct mail. Not just personalisation but AI will create entirely different copy, imagery, offers, and layouts unique to the individual
Here’s Simon Ludlam. Simon works closely with many of our key clients on high-end personalised print projects, combining meticulous attention to detail with plenty of creative flair. He has a real passion for luxury print, premium finishes and those little details that make people stop and say “wow.” If it’s tactile, beautifully finished or impossible to ignore, Simon’s probably already thinking about it.
Dave Seller
Retail Activation Speciailst
Years in the Print Game: 24
Stat : Passed my full unrestricted motorcycle license with only 3 days training AT AGE 50!
Print Prediction: I think POS will evolve from a print product into a more measurable media channel where QR codes and embedded NFC tags will contribute to campaign analytics and data tracking for targeting specific demographics within regions/zones to really tailor the experiential side of physical marketing materials rather than one size fits all
Meet Dave — our large format and retail marketing expert. Dave loves anything that makes shoppers stop in their tracks, from eye-catching window displays to full-on in-store theatre that practically shouts “look at me!” Passionate about retail experiences and brilliant at bringing bold ideas to life, Dave is also the backbone of the team. Serious about great work, not so serious about himself.
Matt Johnson
Operations Director
Years in the Print Game: 26
Stat : 67,000 hours spent bringing printed products to life!
Print Prediction: The next decade will see print become more valued for its collectability, authenticity, and tactility
Meet Matt, our Operations Director at the Sheffield site and the man who helped bring our trading card production vision to life for some of the world’s biggest brands. If there’s something Matt doesn’t know about trading cards, it probably isn’t worth knowing. Outside of work, Matt is a self-confessed knowledge collector — always reading, watching documentaries or diving into the next big thing before everyone else has heard about it.
Karl Williams
Technical Services Director
Years in the Print Game: 27
Stat : Published in "5" books!
Print Prediction: The print factory of the future will be defined by its silence. Data flows in, production flows out, and people intervene only by exception. The measure of operational excellence won't be throughput alone, but the percentage of work that completes without human touch, allowing humans to add value in innovation and creativity
Introducing Karl — our DPO and translator of all things governance. Karl has the rare ability to turn complicated data jargon into language the rest of us can actually understand. Definitely not your stereotypical grey-suit compliance guy, he’s helping drag data governance into the modern world and making it… dare we say… almost cool for both us and our customers.
Jon Bailey
CEO
Years in the Print Game: 30
Meet Jon Bailey — our CEO and the guy who keeps us all heading in the same direction. Nobody is more passionate about customer excellence and employee engagement than Jon, and his energy for pushing the business forward is pretty contagious. Whether he’s travelling the globe sharing the Precision Proco story, clocking up miles visiting clients around the UK, or driving innovation across the business, Jon is always looking for the next big opportunity. Although, according to Jon himself, underneath it all he’s just “a big softy at heart.” We’ll let you decide on that one.
