About me

I currently work in a small corporate production team, designing and setting a weekly financial title along with large specialised supplements. We support the editorial team with a consistent, accurate and efficient service proving to be flexible and timely with work flow solutions and deadlines. The role also includes supervision of outside and casual staff on a weekly basis as well as helping control budgets.

I also independently work as the titles graphic designer, which is of my own initiative. This has become an integral part of my role within the company, something I am enthusiastic in maintaining and creating a high standard of design, working on both print and web marketing materials. I work directly with the marketing team being commissioned for various promotional design and corporate communications. I apply strong typographic skills to the companies marketing collateral with a consistent eye for detail.

I freelance within the publishing group creating editorial design, cover illustrations, branding exercises and promotional artwork for different publications and services. All this work is seen from initial concept through to print and web. I have also had experience presenting creative ideas to outside business partners involved with projects. These disciplines are also carried though to my own private clients out of the work place. I have successfully completed various deign projects in the past 12 months for clients in many different areas of profession.

I have experience working within corporate guidelines but also generating fresh new design ideas for different events, products and services applying creative direction though out.

I would like to move into a new full time role to gain experience and inspiration from new challenges and working with a new larger team of designers.

Thanks
