Booked for two weeks, then asked to stay.

Three times in my career, a freelance booking meant to last a couple of weeks turned into something longer.

Desk life

Business to business marketing, across a wide range of jobs where a temp stint became a permanent role.

Promotional displays and point of sale for home entertainment at a studio that needed cover which became a repeat booking, then a permanent position.

Advertising variations and localisation for out of home and press. This time winter holiday cover rolled into several months, and then a fixed term contract.

Different sectors but the same pattern. My work was consistently good when it was checked and I caught problems before anyone else had to fix them.

Things have changed since then as I'm not after a permanent seat now. I run my own design and artwork business but I'm still looking to be awarded the same level of trust. Clients who plan me into their projects instead of only thinking of me when the studio is stretched.

Which project on your schedule right now would free up the most of your team if someone else handled it from brief to final files?
