About Keith
All my working experience has been in a customer facing role delivering excellent customer service in a creative & print management arena and gaining a great reputation for meeting the needs of a wide range of clients including some very well-known brands.
I am well versed in the preparation of artwork for print and other media, I have managed my own team of designers in my last role, I very experienced at traffic management of creative projects, I have a great eye for the details and I am experienced at managing quality issues. I have regularly taken briefs, prepared specifications, proof checked artwork, liaised with clients over corrections and relayed them to the designers. I am also experienced at approving customers work on press, if required.
Being a confident and knowledgeable print project manager, I have a fantastic understanding of the full breadth of print & finishing options. I have purchased a wide variety of printed materials for over twenty years and have some very good contacts for gaining great service & quality at affordable prices.
I have excellent client relationship skills complimented by effective interpersonal, communication (both oral and written), negotiation and purchasing skills. I am very experienced at dealing with discrepancies and deciding on corrective actions and communicating them to the relevant teams.
I can offer extensive practical knowledge of PC based IT packages (MS Word, Excel (Advanced), PowerPoint, Project etc.), some mainframe systems (SAP) & good all round IT skills.
My time management skills are excellent; I have a strong work ethic; I am efficient, adaptable, approachable, organised, have a desire to succeed; of smart appearance & a confident manner. I have the ability to manage my own workload and that of others to meet changing deadlines. I am used to thinking on my feet and I work well under pressure. I have always displayed a willingness to learn new skills and pass on my knowledge to others to help them develop. I also have great experience in supporting the colleagues working with me and the clients depending upon me.
