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. ==References==
