About me

Hi,

Please find attached my CV, I am currently looking to further my career and looking for designer/project manager positions. I am a design graduate with over 4 years design experience.

Currently, I am working as a Packaging Designer/Project Manager at Vivid Imaginations -

the UK's No.1 Toy Company.

My role involves managing and leading design direction on brands, from research/concept stage to final design. I also manage and sign off wet proofs and production packaging through our various

suppliers. When starting a brief through to final design, I present to the CEO and Senior Management team, at key stages when dealing with brands.

I have worked on some of Vivid's biggest brands; they include: Disney, FA (England licence), Crayola, Thunderbirds, Animal Hospital, Balamory and our own in-house games. I have also worked

on developing new style-guides, for new licences Vivid have acquired.

My role involves me working closely with our Marketing team, to develop brands in the most effective way.

As part of the R&D department at Vivid, not only do I work on packaging and POS design but work to give ideas for product design and other creative solutions needed for Vivid also.

I manage internal/external suppliers - from briefing freelancers and design companies, as well as managing vendors. I also manage licensors; these include BBC Worldwide, The FA, Granada Ventures and Disney to name a few. I also manage my own detailed budgets.

If you need to ask any further questions, please don't hesitate in contacting me again.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Andrew Welch
