Jason Bevan is widely recognised for his ability to unlock creativity and inspire bold thinking. As the former Head of Creative Development and VP Marketing EMEA at Warner Bros, he has shaped the creative direction of globally loved franchises and now brings that wealth of experience to stages internationally. As a speaker, he offers rare insight into how imagination, collaboration, and inventive problem-solving fuel success in high-pressure creative environments, making him a sought-after voice for organisations seeking fresh perspectives.
Jason’s career began at Hill and Knowlton, where he quickly demonstrated a flair for inventive communication and brand storytelling. As a senior account executive, he played a key role in launching the first five instalments of the Walkers and Gary Lineker campaign, helping to cement it as a cultural touchpoint. His work with Doritos, Budweiser, Flora and Black and Decker further sharpened his ability to craft messages that captivate audiences. He later joined Disney, initially supporting promotions for its American theme parks and cruise line, contributing to the launch of Animal Kingdom and introducing the cruise line to the UK. His progress continued at Disneyland Paris, where he led consumer PR activity before transitioning to Warner Bros.
At Warner Bros., Jason rose to become Head of Creative Development and VP Marketing EMEA, contributing to an extraordinary catalogue of films spanning blockbuster franchises and acclaimed releases. He helped shape campaigns for Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts, The Lego Movie, The Hobbit and a slate of award-winning and genre-defining titles, including A Star is Born, The Hangover, The Conjuring and IT. His work often brought him into collaboration with major talent such as Tom Cruise, Matt Damon, Johnny Depp, Margot Robbie and Clint Eastwood. After leaving the studio, he founded Innervation to share his expertise in creativity and storytelling, and co-founded Content Creator Studios, producing innovative live and virtual content as well as material for premieres such as Blue Moon and The Running Man. His two TED talks, 'Innervation' and 'Rocketfuel your creativity: insider secrets from the big movies’, further highlight his talent for distilling complex creative processes into accessible techniques.
Jason is hired as a motivational speaker because he translates decades of world-class creative experience into practical inspiration. His sessions blend behind-the-scenes stories with clear, usable methods that help audiences approach challenges with renewed imagination. Known for his energy, warmth and ability to demystify the creative process, he equips organisations to think bigger, innovate faster and embrace new ideas with confidence.
