About me

My Name is Paul Wade, a graphic designer from Ireland with 1 year and 6 months design agency experience.

I am looking to move across to London for a new experience. The quality of work coming from London is always of an excellent standard and it would be a great experience for me. I have written a brief summary of myself. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you.

A Brief Introduction

My name is Paul Wade, a graphic designer from Cork, Ireland. Graphic design is what I love to do. No matter where I am or where I live it is what I want to spend my life doing. I finished my degree in May 2010. After a summer of interviews but “not having The experience”, I approached a number of agencies in search of an internship/ Work experience. I found this internship in Fuzion, a PR, Marketing and Design agency based in the centre of Cork City. I started on October 1st 2010 and worked free of charge for 6 months to gain that valuable experience while also working a part time job to support myself.

In March 2011 my efforts were rewarded and I was hired as a permanent member of the Fuzion team. I have a particular love for branding, pinpointing a companies/persons core and expressing this through a visual element. Not just through the logo itself but also through every detail of the company, from the signage to the way someone answers the phone. Branding, advertising, web design, social media design are just some of the areas I work on for clients on a daily basis. My experience in the graphic design world has made me proficient in many aspects of the industry. The programs and software, the client service, the pitches, meetings and the print liaison as well as the follow up with the client were all in my remit with Fuzion. A steep but enjoyable learning curve, and a curve I wish to continue.

A new job, in a new place with new people is something I have been considering for a long time. To expand myself as a person, to gain invaluable experience and also to learn the trends in the graphic design field from new people in a part of the world that has a different audience.
