I was responsible for the day to day management of the non-fashion half of Kays Catalogue, plus Morses catalogue - this was about 1400 page pa. Effectively, I designed and established a graphic house-style for the pages at the start of the season. Commissioned and briefed designers and photographers, both in-house and from external sources. Maintained the graphic 'house-style' across all the pages. Established schedules for the creative process for hand over to production and ensured that each creative elements were on time. I really enjoyed my time at Kays.

This must have been the singularly most depressing and demoralising job I ever had.
