About me

Dear Sir / Madam,I am currently working as a successful Project and Traffic Manager for a fast paced publishing house based in Shepherds Bush who specialise in calendars and FMCG's. On our customer list we have Tesco, Asda, Calendar Club and Clinton Cards. In addition we deal with licences from company's such as Marvel, Warner Bros., MGM and IPC.As the Project Manager I oversee the design of some 200 products within a 6 month window. The role includes everything from obtaining artwork, designing and assigning briefs to freelance designers, mocking and proofing artwork, managing budgets and obtaining green seals. However the most important aspect of my job is managing the workflow of all of those elements to meet print and delivery deadlines.All of our FMCG's have involved some level of POS and many of our calendars have included press campaigns as well as other promotional activities such as celebrity signings. All of which I have been an integral part of.I have a fantastic attention to detail and I'm very pro active with a great creative streak. I also have a great understanding of the balance between creative excellence and business deadlines and believe I would be an ideal candidate for the position of Project ManagerI look forward to hearing from you shortly.Kind RegardsAndy Patten
