Jonathan Clays Voiceover Artist

As a professional voice over artist and awards show voice over you’ll have heard my voice just about everywhere: for example on some of the best known tv shows, films, Youtube channels, tv/radio commercials, plus in places like The Lloyds Building and The Mersey Tunnel. Or, how about advertising the Danish stages of The Tour de France 2022 across most of Europe, selling smartphones in SE Asia or Heineken globally for instance?

I’d describe my voice as neutral English, natural and believable with authority, with irony fitted as an optional extra. However, if it’s a character voice you’re looking for…

CHARACTER VOICES

Need a football commentator voice over artist? As arguably the UK’s leading authentic football commentator voice over my voice is widely used for TV, radio and online commercials, documentaries, in-store and interactive and PC games. Consequently, it’s regularly used by some of the biggest brands on the planet for very high profile campaigns.

My 1940s style Pathe News Reader impression also goes down quite well. 

I’ve also been the in-show voice of many of Britain’s best loved TV shows for that ‘BIG’ Saturday Night TV sound.  As a result, you can book that same Sat Night Takeaway style for live ‘Voice of God‘ awards ceremonies which are always great fun to do. “And the nominations are…”

I work full-time from my own London studio. As a result that means high quality and fast turnaround times. My fees are in line with professional industry rates for all voice over jobs. However if you’re on a tight budget I’ll always do my best to find a price that works. Just get in touch and I’ll always be happy to help…

Latest News: 3rd October 2025: Fall into a 'VoG'-fest!

September marked the beginning of the Autumn awards season. What a fine beginning to the season it’s been too, with eight events booked already!

Although live VoG work tends to be booked months in advance, September threw up two rather pleasant surprises. Not one but two live awards events booked last minute for the same week: The AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards followed by the fabulous UKPN Awards at The Guildhall. What a night it was too; jesters, a harpist, a live choir, the grandest of medieval settings and genuine enthusiasm directed at the employer. UKPN struck me as a company that knows how to look after its employees. I absolutely loved it! 

That leaves five more pre-booked live VoG events lined up with hopefully plenty more to be added.

If you’d like a mix of national TV. gameshow vocals, fun energy and perhaps a hint of tongue in cheek for your event then I’d thoroughly recommend me!

You can hear my latest VoG demo, featuring audio from recent events here.
