    Senior Graphic DesignertoucanBox (Dodadine Ltd.)
    London, United KingdomFull Time
    Senior Graphic Designer and Illustrator / Manager / Project Leader June 2017 - present • I undertook the rebranding of the toucanBox magazine (a fortnightly release with a readership of over 45,000 across 4 languages). Focussed on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Maths) my aim was to create bright, funny illustrations and layouts that inspire and educate children. The rebranding included everything from developing a new style guide and layout for the magazine to designing brand new characters and packaging for the box and craft materials. • I took full responsibility and ownership of all the design and branding. I oversaw and directed designers to ensure the creative integrity of the work was on brand with an attention to detail at all times. • I combined hands-on designing across all product and marketing channels ranging from Facebook and Instagram ads, to affiliate banners (the limited edition Easter banners had an increase of 103% clicks) and email templates through to print inserts (the rebranded leaflet had an increase of 79% in response rate) and landing page assets. I managed the product and marketing design request workflow, ensuring briefs were clear and prioritised for all products and markets. • I mentored and managed the Design Team with regular catch ups and one-to-ones. Mid-weight Graphic Designer and Illustrator June 2014 - May 2017 • I managed design projects from concept to completion including campaigns and photoshoots. Presented concepts and designs to the team. • I was sourcing and hiring new (junior and mid-weight) designers to join the company and mentored them through their progression in the company. • As a Design Project Leader for Mum-Made, a craft subscription for young mothers. I created a new brand style guide including the design and illustrations for printed and responsive online materials.
