Client liaising
I joined Pixel Scene working 4
days a week to get more digital
experience and to have the luxury
of purely designing rather than
managing staff. By working 4 days
a week it meant I could spend the
5th day of the week working with
private clients and personal
projects. I worked with some
exceptional digital developers and
loved the hands on nature of this
job learning all sides of the digital
design process and bringing my
extensive design skills to the
company.
Every pitch we went for we won
and the largest digital project I
worked on was Aintree (home of
the Grand National Horse Race).
This race is watched by 40million
people around the world.

Club (Managing 25 race courses),
