Design work comes and goes, even for busier marketing and design agencies. I work with several on an ad-hoc basis and was thinking this is of real benefit for them, as it can also be for any business owner. Perhaps you are a small business and struggle to keep up with your social media or need a brand refresh or update to your website.

  • You don’t have to employ a designer so there are fewer overheads when it comes to sick and holiday pay.
  • You can use me for as little or as much design help as you need.
  • If you’re an agency or larger company, you can give me an internal email if needed, so I can be seen as being part of your team. I am also able to pop onto video meetings in the same capacity.
  • You get someone who is used to working across different sectors and has experience in multiple design platforms, from interactive tv and web, to graphics and apps.
  • I can hit the ground running. My freelance experience means I’ve worked across lots of different design programmes. I use the Adobe suite every day, but have also used apps such as Figma, Sketch, Marketo and Canva.
  • You can hire me on a retainer if you’d like to guarantee a certain amount of my time each month.
  • I love to help with cross-platform design. I enjoy creating graphics for social media, e-books, brochures, exhibition stands and emails under the same branding.
  • I am used to working within brand guidelines but also can help you if you want to update branding or logos.
  • I come in with a fresh pair of yes – I can undertake usability audits for websites or landing pages, for instance. This benefits websites which have not been updated in a while.
  • I work remotely so you don’t have to pay for me a desk.
  • No need to pay NI contributions, holiday or sick pay for me.
  • I love a challenge so if you’re stuck with something design related please let me know – I’ll help you out of your design pickle!
