About Stuart…
I am a Senior Graphic Designer and Team Lead with extensive agency and in-house experience. I excel at managing demanding workflows and key client accounts across diverse sectors, including Corporate, Finance, Sports, Property, and Education. My approach is driven by a passion for delivering creative and effective design solutions that meet client briefs, from initial concept to art direction, design, and project management. I thrive in fast-paced environments, consistently meeting tight deadlines while maintaining a positive and collaborative attitude. My experience includes leading design teams on high-profile, fast-turnaround projects, both on and off-site. In my current role within a global Med-Comms company, I played a key role in establishing an in-house design team, managing clients, and developing comprehensive materials, including branding, bespoke event collateral, animations, and interactive presentations for major corporations.

Skills and experience
-
Part of my job involves producing multiple concepts for a regular stream of Creative Projects. These are sometimes on tight deadlines and can also involve the creative direction of other team members. I find the process of producing new concepts to roll out with larger projects enjoyable.
-
I work with organisations to strengthen their brands. Some have a well-defined brand identity but lack the processes to implement it effectively. Others have guidelines but struggle with consistent application. I help clients bridge this gap by developing a clear vision and practical framework for using their brand across all necessary platforms and materials.
-
Design pitches and proposals have always been a passion of mine. They provide a valuable opportunity to demonstrate innovative design and production solutions, and to effectively communicate the unique value we bring.
-
I enjoy the process of dissecting complex information to find its essence and then visualizing it in a clear and accessible way. This challenge is one of the most rewarding aspects of graphic design for me.
-
I am committed to assisting individuals in developing and delivering compelling presentations, both in traditional and virtual environments. The prevalence of remote work has amplified the importance of high-quality presentation skills.
-
I specialise in enhancing documents and presentations with interactive elements, transforming static content into engaging experiences. Using platforms like Adobe, PDF, and PowerPoint, I develop interactive menus, reveals, animations, and more, bringing materials to life.
-
I love helping brands unlock the potential of social media. By creating engaging content strategies and providing resources like templates and animations, I enable clients to maintain a consistent and compelling social media presence with ease.
-
Exhibitions and events present a unique opportunity for brands to make a statement, but they can also be a blank canvas that feels intimidating without a clear vision.
-
I have worked with alot of animation to help add impact and value to projects. This is something I enjoy and always looking to expand.
I have also helped edit and put togeather many videos for companies, be it talking heads or more promotional. -
I am actively exploring the potential of A.I. to enhance project value and efficiency. Whether through Adobe's integrated A.I. features or other specialised software for content generation and image optimisation, I am committed to leveraging these technologies.
-
While managing one of the main client accounts, I also managed and reviewed a stream of diverse projects with ever changing goal posts. This work involved a good interactive relationship with clients as well as with the team to deliver the expected high quality finished project.
-
I have managed various different sized teams over the years, from small in-house teams to on-site client teams. This included working with freelancers and balancing many projects running at the same time.
