Work history
Graphic Designer
I currently work as a graphic designer for Active Signs and Design which is in partnership with National Signs. My role is to design proofs for them based upon their exact requirements. The proofs include banners, posters, signs, and flyers. When the clients have approved the artwork, I print them out on to the specified material. Between designs I answer phone calls, helping with enquiries, placing orders, utilising product knowledge and taking payments. In addition I work in production, including printing out designs on various different materials, making up boards, banners etc.
The role has also allowed me to gain management experience filling in for my manager when on holiday, thereby allowing me the chance to show that I am capable of running a small business and keeping everything up to date and running smoothly.
