He worked as the financial controller at C&B Publishing Plc - the listed owners of the Collins & Brown publishing group who also owned imprints such as Pavilion Books and Belitha Press - until 2001, when he became finance director of Frances Lincoln Limited. Working alongside John Nicoll, the owner and managing director, he grew and developed the company until he oversaw its eventual sale to the Quarto Group in 2011.

After overseeing the successful integration of C&R and its systems into Hachette UK, Jon left Little, Brown in October 2014 to run Rippon Publishing Management full-time.
