We follow a highly collaborative approach to all our work, functioning as an extension of your team for the duration of any project.
I am privileged to be supported by a small, diverse team of experienced and skilled consultants, writers and subject matter experts, with more than 60 years' collective experience and broad academic and industrial backgrounds.
With extensive experience in navigating the complexities of grant applications and articulating fundable, compelling narratives, we are dedicated to helping small businesses achieve their funding goals and commercial success.

Jake has spent his career helping SMEs, scale-ups and research organisations win and deliver the grants that turn ideas into impact, securing multi-£m in funding with a 70%+ public sector bid win rate.
He has worked alongside leading RTOs and universities, including Fraunhofer, Inspiralia, Brunel, Huddersfield, MTC and TWI. Through his consultancy JMJW, he has built AI-powered bid and grant writing tools, secured funding for several innovation projects and is building an innovation eco-system to better support SMEs, scale-ups and academics.

JMJW was founded by Jacob Wells in July 2024, following more than 18 years' experience in the areas of innovation consulting, proposal writing & bid management.
He is supported by our diverse and experienced team of six Innovation Consultants and Bid Writers, with most having worked alongside Jacob for upwards of seven years.
Together, we are driven by creating positive, collaborative working relationships, with a complete focus on winning proposals and realising innovation.

We have been working for the last 12 months to build and launch SustAIn - the AI-powered Innovation Ecosystem, turning grant funding into real outcomes for SMEs, scale-ups and Academia.
SustAIn doesn’t just help secure grant funding. It scans every call, assembles the right consortium, helps draft winning proposals and supports agile delivery, automated reporting and licensable IP.
We’re now making SustAIn available for early access, free of charge to SMEs with < £5m turnover, and Academics.
I enjoyed collaborating with Jacob on several bids. His thorough approach, unwavering focus on objectives, and collaborative spirit were instrumental in delivering three comprehensive applications in just six weeks. Jacob consistently brought a positive and engaging attitude to our team, and his, making him a true asset.
I have no reservations about recommending Jacob and look forward to the opportunity to work with him again.
What truly stood out to me was Jake’s approachability - his calm, supportive attitude made him incredibly easy to work with. His attention to detail was impressive, catching potential issues early and offering practical solutions that kept the project moving forward efficiently. Thanks to Jake’s guidance, the entire RFP process felt seamlessand I wasn’t overwhelmed. I would highly and gladly recommend working with Jake as a consultant for your next bid.
I had the pleasure of working with Jake for several years on grant funding bids with a focus on Innovate UK and EIC Accelerator funding, and I can confidently say that Jake is one of the most effective and knowledgeable bid writers I've worked with. He has an exceptional understanding of the UK and European funding landscape, from competition scope and assessment criteria to what assessors are really looking for in terms of innovation, impact and commercialisation. What really sets Jake apart is his ability to work collaboratively in asking the right questions, challenging assumptions constructively and bringing structure to what is often a complex and time-consuming process.
We have worked with Jacob now, on and off, for many years and every time we have needed his support the service has been exemplary.
Tender writing is never an easy task however Jake and his team have always been experts in offering guidance and advice in a totally professional manner and have made the process so much easier.
In fact, as a result of working with Jake, we have been successful in a number of tenders.
Jacob first provided me with Tender/Bid Services in 2011 when PRS were vying for a prestigious 4-year contract for specialist product supply with the Ministry of Defence in the UK.
As our writing and commercial team were based overseas, they required a significant amount of guidance on how to Interpret, Formulate & Structure a response which would meet with, and hopefully surpass, the client's requirements.
I am pleased to say that Jacob not only provided the templates and reviews that won this bid for PRS, he also successfully managed and negotiated a number of competing personalities within our team to do so.
I would happily recommend Jacob without reservation for those with similar requirements, especially those in the Small - Medium sector, trying to improve/commence their Public Sector Tender process.
Jake is an invaluable resource and has provided excellent advice and support over the past decade. He translates ‘tender speak’ into plain English and has helped us achieve pitch success.
We love our customers, so feel free to visit during normal business hours.
