About me

My name is David Grimshaw and I am 28 years old and a Graphic Design graduate from Sheffield Hallam University. I would like to apply for the graphic design vacancy. I gained experience whilst doing my b-tech national diploma level 3 in graphic design and art design foundation working for Manchester University design media and print finishing department, this developed my desire to working in a graphic design career and led me to complete my degree. During my time at the university i assisted in the design of international conference posters for a wide variety of subject matters, i also learnt how to print finish (backing, laminating and mounting). After this i worked for a company based in Manchester called Positive Print Solutions, here i designed signs for zoo's (Chester Zoo and Kingston Zoo in Jamaica).

Since completing my degree i found it difficult to secure work in a design environment so this has led me to work in other office environments since then. In the last year i have purchased my own mac computer along with creative suite 6 software to enable me to work on projects and develop my skills to help me move into a graphic design role. I would thoroughly enjoy working for a reputable company and be able to demonstrate my ability to provide design work to a high standard. If you would like more information please contact me at or by phone .
