EYUP – I’m Jessica, Yorkshire lass born and bred, and a designer of the Graphic kind based in and around Glasgow. For subtitles, please press 1… *BEEP*
I’m a Graphic Designer, looking for my next role. In my career so far, I have worked in three very different roles within the design industry. Currently as an in-house designer for a global Engineering company with a diverse portfolio of both in-house and external clients; and previous roles as a creative designer and a direct designer to client relationship, covering projects from briefing through to production.
I am highly organised and very comfortable working in a direct client to designer role, and building rapport and maintaining those relationships is a really satisfying part of my job. I spend most of my time creating and working within existing design systems, particularly focused on typography, layout, and all the details in between. I’ve worked with brands both large and small – delivering projects across print and digital.
I studied at the University of Lincoln on their BA (Hons) Graphic Design programme and have been working in the design industry for over 8 years, primarily in London. In the past, I’ve enjoyed worked with numerous organisations including the World Health Organization (WHO), United Nations Finance Climate Change Committee (UNFCCC), London Stock Exchange Group (LSE/LSEG), the Royal Horticultural Society, Barnes RFC Women, and Mahogany Opera Group.
