Skills
I'm offering
I am a highly experienced Designer/Artworker/Visualiser/Retoucher with a meticulous eye for detail in design layout, typography and colour harmony
for all print collateral and online digital media. My rewarding career has
encompassed FMCG Packaging, Sales Literature, POS, Advertising, Branding
and more recently Shopper Experience Marketing and Digital Media, working
with many well-known retail, pharmaceutical & healthcare brands.
Sadly, I was made redundant from my full-time Senior Creative Artworker
position this June due to Corona Virus having worked at N2O Brand and
Experiential agency as their lead artworker for 3 years.
Currently I’ve gone back to working freelance in London and Basingstoke for
a large Branding & Advertising agency as well as a more local Pharmaceutical
and Digital Media agency (see page 2). I create and produce final artwork for
packaging, POS material, advertising and sales material to pre-press approval,
along with production of websites, emailers, digital banners and user guides,
as well as high level retouching of photo images.

Creative Artworker
Bayer, Idis, Nutricia, Besins Healthcare and Eusa Pharma.
I’ve held positions as key senior artworker at many big in-house studiosincluding Camelot (National Lottery} in Watford, Tesco’s in Welwyn and Waitrose in Bracknell producing all types of artwork and liaising with suppliers & printers as well as freelancing for many Pharma & Healthcare agencies working on detail aids, online support literature and mobile user guides.
In May (2010) I finished a 14 month maternity cover contract as a combined studio manager/senior artworker with a very successful design and print company in Reading. Managing a team of 9 designers and artworkers, I was responsible for the day to day running and traffic workflow through the studio, both overseeing work and assisting with artwork for the team as well.
Some big brands and household names I have worked with include;
Nestlé, Dairy Crest, St Ivel, Lavazza, Waitrose, Tesco and Sainsbury’s own label, Cadbury’s, Lindt, Walkers, Tropicana, Procter & Gamble Brands, Gillette, Duracell, Hugo Boss, Olay, Max Factor, Pantene and Lenor as well as other more diverse projects for British Gas and BT and several big car makers, high street banks and many Pharmaceutical Companies including Shire UK, Baxter, Britannia, Ferring, Derma UK, Galderma, Bayer, Idis, Nutricia, Besins Healthcare and Eusa Pharma.
Between 2006 to 2007 I was freelance contracted for 12 months as
Creative Director at Martin Dawe Brand Design and I completed this
maternity cover contract on 13th July 2007.
At the beginning of 2001 I was commissioned to set up an in-house
design and production department for one of the UK’s largest internet
car dealerships; www.trade-sales.co.uk. This I did very successfully,
and also sourced 3 permanent design/artwork staff for them, running
the online and adverting departments. The weekly advertising spend
was £22,500 and I saved the company over £0.5 million in the first year
alone, saving on outside advertising creative costs and also planning
and negotiating better deals on media space in national and local
newspapers, top automotive magazine titles, and radio advertising.
