Nick Jenkins

Born at Droitwich Spa, Worcestershire, Jenkins was educated at Haberdashers' Adams Grammar School, before going up to Birmingham University. He pursued further studies at Cranfield University, graduating as MBA.

Jenkins launched the greeting card business Moonpig in 2000; 'Moonpig' alluding to his nickname at school, hence the name of the brand. In 2011, he sold Moonpig for an estimated £120 million.

Since 2008, Jenkins has been investing in start-up businesses. He was a member of the Impact Ventures UK investment committee – an investment fund which invests in social enterprises using innovation to find better solutions to social issues in the UK. He is also involved with the educational charity ARK and Shivia.

A donor to the Conservative Party, he was a signatory to a letter to The Daily Telegraph during the 2015 United Kingdom general election campaign, which praised the party's economic policies and claimed that a future Labour government (under Ed Miliband) would "threaten jobs and deter investment".

Since 2014 Jenkins has owned Stockton House, a Grade I listed mansion in Wiltshire, and is a Liveryman of the Haberdashers' Company since 2018.
