The MAD Agency 2001 – June 2008
Designer / Studio Manager
At MAD I was closely involved with clients, listening, understanding their needs. Working at all levels from brochures to the design and organisation of web sites. Dealing with production flow to print and press.
I had two designers who worked with me, myself and the Creative Director feed them work - but we tried and let them build their own relationship with clients that they worked with, we liked to remove the chinese whispers problem.
I also dealt with the flow of work through the studio, getting media booked in with the media buyers, organising print quotes, supplying work ready for suppliers to work from, sorting out timesheets, preparing job bags for invoice, etc . I dealt with all the IT questions that the other staff have and solved any IT related problems.
Am was only designer at The MAD Agency that could also deal with web construction although I was teaching these skills to the designers under me.
Clients include: The RNLI, Daisy & Tom (part of ELC), The Royal Navy, Bournemouth Council, NHS, Horizon Motor Co (Mazda, Honda, Suzuki, Nissan, Citroen), Britannia Removals, David Lloyd, Esporta
