Willenhall, West Midlands, United Kingdom

My second and current job is exactly that, I work for a small but very well known award winning label print company called CS labels, based in willenhall, West Midlands. My role here is a lot more print based, we create and print a lot of our labels in house. This roll gives me the opportunity to design a range of things from simple information labels to quirky and exiting beer labels, customer will send briefs of all different shapes and sizes. This job not only allows me to create and design exciting products but also allows me to interact with customers about materials and covering, helping them understand what could really make my design and their label stand out. This job has helped me gain confidence in designing for a wide range of customers and has helped me gain experience working within the adobe suite to create things I never new were possible. It has also allowed me to expand on my design skills, giving me space to make things that tiny bit better by choosing what material or finish and showing me what can be achieved in the print industry.

Great Barr

Much of my work involves illustrating artwork for badges which we supply to many companies including National Railway Museum, British Railway, Orient Express and many more. I also have the opportunity to create pieces for Haskins and R.E.V GOMM, along with this I have been able to design for a range of products for example, Mugs, Bookmarks, Magnets, Buttons, Award/Trophies, Museum Souvenirs and English Heritage Souvenirs. A lot of our customers also require large scale prints which has enabled me to use a Roland printer and the Roland Versaworks system, this means I have designed many products from banners, large advertisements and van/car graphics. Also within our company we have recently started a small menswear brand called Tyler & Tyler, due to this I have had the opportunity to design for not only products but advertising such as posters, leaflets, flyers, exhibition stands and many more most of which includes photographing products, editing them and uploading to our web site, working with a menswear brand allows me to keep on top of the latest trends and keep up to date with design in all aspects.

Whilst working for Dunelm Mill I have been able to gain some experience when working within a customer based environment. Being a sales assistant it allows me to communicate with customers on a regular basis meaning I have the confidence to approach customers when needed. I also have a high understanding for working within a team built environment but also using my own initiative to complete single tasks to the best I can.
