For agencies

An extra pair of hands, without the extra headcount.

I support design, branding and marketing agencies as a freelance designer: picking up artwork, leading projects, and quietly taking on the jobs nobody else has time for. Under your name, to your guidelines and to your deadlines.

Talk to me about a project

How I can help

  • Artworking

    Approved designs taken into production: print-ready files, resizes, adaptations across formats, packaging and large format, checked properly before they reach the printer.

  • Leading projects

    A brand or campaign taken from brief to delivery. I can present to your client, or stay behind the scenes and feed the work through you.

  • Extra capacity

    Another pair of hands when the studio is stretched: holidays, pitches, busy seasons or three big jobs landing in the same week.

  • Brand and identity

    Strategy-led identities, guidelines and roll-out, the core of my own practice, working to your process and your creative lead.

  • Digital and social

    Social templates and campaigns, presentation decks, email templates and website design, built so your team can pick them up after.

  • The odd jobs

    A one-off deck, a sign drawing, a set of last-minute resizes, the thing nobody else has time for. Nothing is too small.

White label

Your name on the work. Not mine.

I can work completely white label. I’ll present as part of your team, work through your email address if you want, and leave the credit with you. The work stays out of my portfolio unless you say otherwise, and I’ll never approach your clients.

Before going independent I spent eight years inside a Liverpool studio, so I know how agencies run: tight turnarounds, changing briefs, account managers juggling five things at once. I fit in, keep you updated, and hand back tidy, properly named files.

Ways to work together

  1. 01

    By the day

    Book days or half days, remotely or in your studio. Good for overflow and artworking.

  2. 02

    By the project

    A fixed quote for a defined piece of work, from brief to final files.

  3. 03

    On retainer

    Regular days each month, so you always have someone who knows your clients and systems.

Questions

Things agencies ask

Do you really work white label?

Yes. I work under your agency’s name, through your email address if you like, with no credit on the work. I won’t show it in my portfolio or contact your clients without your say-so, and I’m happy to sign an NDA.

Can you work in our files and systems?

Yes. I work in Adobe Creative Cloud (InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop) and Figma, and I’ll follow your templates, naming conventions, guidelines and sign-off process.

How much notice do you need?

It depends on the week. I can often pick up smaller jobs at short notice. For longer projects or regular days, the earlier you get in touch the better.

Will you speak to our clients?

Only if you want me to. Some agencies like me in the room as part of the team; others prefer I stay behind the scenes. Both are fine.

What are your rates?

I work by the day, by the project or on a monthly retainer. Get in touch with what you need and I’ll send rates that fit.

Stretched this week?

Tell me what’s on your plate and when it’s due. I’ll let you know quickly if I can take it on.
