Graphic DesignerVertebrate Publishing
- Sheffield, United KingdomFull Time
Vertebrate Publishing is an award-winning independent publisher of outdoor adventure
books. Working within a small team, I was responsible for the design and layout of a wide
range of books from narratives to photographic guidebooks and coffee table books, along
with delivering full marketing support through print and digital channels. I worked collaboratively with managers, editors, sales support and printers to deliver multiple projects within often short deadlines.
I was also the sole designer for a quarterly client magazine where I liaised with external stakeholders and printers to manage the process to deliver a quality periodical to deadline. This required me to be proactive, have strong organisational skills, foresee any issues, and creatively respond to feedback.
