Jonathan Holmes | Managing Partner

For Jonathan Holmes, the opportunity to put his years of experience in finance and business development to work to launch a new customer-centric agency with a fresh approach proved to be the dream of a lifetime. In 2004, along with partner Bradley Sherwood, he started Spitfire.

Today, as one of the firm's managing partners, he enjoys working with clients to solve marketing challenges and plan for future success. Whether it's his ability to see the big picture while attending to the details or his greater understanding how it all impacts the bottom line, Jonathan is an integral part of Spitfire's team.

Jonathan is a native of Columbia, SC and a proud graduate of the University of South Carolina. He earned a bachelor of science degree from USC with a double major in finance and management. Prior to starting Spitfire, he worked as an accountant as well as a professional fund raiser and received his Certified Fund Raising Executive designation through the National Society of Fund Raising Executives. He has also worked for several agencies where he grew a passion for the business.

One of his proudest career accomplishments, outside of founding Spitfire, was when he helped complete a 3.6 million capital campaign to establish an endowment for Carolina Children's Home, a residential facility for at-risk youth.

Jonathan is a member of Prospect United Methodist Church, the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce, and the Buford Business Alliance.

His son Jonathan, Jr. is a student at the University of Alabama and Kay, his pet pug, is a big part of the family.
