What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Creative Producer, Creative Project Manager or Creative Operations role where my creative expertise, production experience and highly organised approach can contribute to the successful delivery of complex creative projects.

At Rebellion, I create marketing art and key art for its game portfolio, supporting delivery across social media, Steam and media outlets. I also help the marketing team with asset curation and in-game screen capture.

Through Jo Painter Design Ltd, I create illustrations and book covers for authors and publishing houses, managing projects from start to finish. At Netflix, I helped develop and implement a scalable localisation workflow across multiple EMEA regions and worked on trailer and social asset localisation.
