According to the Newcastle Journal:

- He subsequently worked in most sectors of the aluminium industry before joining Alcan Smelting and Power UK [ASPUK] as finance and planning director in 1992. During his time at the company, he took the business through the privatisation of the electricity and coal industries and in 1996 he became the director responsible for the 420-megawatt coal-fired power station at Lynemouth in Northumberland.
- Mr Jones was also commercial manager for a smelting and power project in central China. In 2001, he was appointed managing director of ASPUK, which contributes almost 10pc of aluminium giant Alcan's global smelting capacity. The father of two and grandfather of one also holds directorships at the Aluminium Federation, Primary Aluminium Association, Association of Electricity Producers and Northern Enterprises Ltd and is also chair of the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) Energy Policy Committee.'
