Sorry mate - maybe it's the whole, world of design nepeism and all that - I've do date only ever formally applied for one job in ten years - I was approached for my last 2 jobs directly from referals. And it's only the big move to Aus that means that I am actually looking. No offence taken it's all banter really - I don't think I put the degree bit in my original post it was more there to make a fecicious point but that is probably best avoided online, maybe the subtlety gets lost!!
Seriously in short I have worked mainly in a publishing environement except for freelance and personal projects - From EMAP Where I worked on computer games titles I was offered hired to Art Direct MacUser magazine at Dennis publishing. From there I was refered for the position of Company Art Director to help develop Action Sports Media publishing where I have held the position of Creative Director for the last three years.
A small independent publishing company with three leading titles across Europe, I have be involved heavily the development of ASM at a business level as well as heading up the Creative process.
That'e me really. I'm looking to either pick up senior level publishing work - join an aspirational young agency or publisher looking for some depth and experience at both creative and business level. I also have a couple of projects that I may be looking into launching in the next year or 2.
I guess it might have seemed like this ws my first approach but - I've been doing a lot of research, it was more of a lazy friendly punt really - to see what came back.
