About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to apply to be considered for a freelance design role at Williams Lea.

As a committed team player my communication, time and workflow/project management skills have strengthened considerably, having supported design requirements for 18 countries in Europe and overseen four designers. I was responsible for re-writing Copy supplied by colleagues in Europe without offending them!

I have an excellent, up do date knowledge of the print industry, design for print and print technologies. My extensive design for print experience has lead to the evaluation of print management companies and individual printers over the last three years for Unisys, leading to the evaluation of potential European setups and tapping into the knowledge of UK and European print industry experts. As a result I have developed my evaluation, negotiation and print-buying skills.

I have the ability to be flexible, multitask and respond effectively to changing priorities.
Iâ€(TM)m a good team player, have excellent communication skills, strong organisational skills and excellent attention to detail.
I am fluent with all Adobe packages, Quark Xpress, Powerpoint and Dreamweaver.

I have created and worked with brand guidelines, metric and imperial, for five years.

I would very much welcome the opportunity to elaborate further on my application at an interview and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Richard Newton
