About me

Dear Recruiter

Hope you're well. I am contacting you today regarding the Middlewight Creative Designer opening within your agency.

Currently I am employed in-house for a company called Q4 which specialise in bathroom distribution. My current role as Head of Design & Media requires me to completely manage the design function within the business. I am entirely responsible for all media and creative output across the whole organisation whether through print, digital, video or web formats. Besides the design and development I manage project budgets, along with the communication and coordination of any 3rd party agencies or printing firms. I am responsible for the look and feel of the entire company, from ecommerce websites and online content right through to the creation of a multi-million pound revenue generating retail brochure, distributed nationwide.

Prior to Q4 I worked within the music industry specialising in the design and branding of international acts and large scale events. In fact for the last 10-15 years I have been freelancing on various projects fine-tuning a broad range of disciplines.

The reason I am contacting you however, is although comfortably employed I have a tremendous yearning for agency-side work. I feel that to be truly at my best I need to be surrounded by likeminded individuals who share my passion and enthusiasm for design and related technology. I believe that working with people who get equally excited by exceptional work will in turn help feed my endless journey for creative perfection.

I have attached a copy of my CV and included a link below to my online portfolio which should hopefully display my capabilities, and of course would relish the opportunity to answer any questions you may have.

I look forward to your reply.

Yours sincerely

James Parry-Jones
