I’M JESS

In the almost 5 years that I’ve been working as a graphic designer, I’ve spent the last 23 months working as an internal graphic designer for Hertz. Since joining the team, I’ve been privileged to jump right into the work. As the only internal graphic designer, my scope of projects have been far & wide, which have provided me with the opportunity to not other further the skills I acquired within my first role at Print On Wood, but continue to grow & expand my expertise.

Projects thus far have included managing both internal and external stakeholder expectations by maintain project timelines & delivering high-quality assets, curating content that adheres to brand guidelines and being a champion of our multibrand group. I’ve had the pleasure of spearheading internal communications by running and APAC-wide newsletter, as well as supporting the exective team with our APAC wide-monthly and quarterly business updates. I’ve also spent a great deal of time providing various print assets, such as permanent location signage and vehicle wraps. On the digital side of things, I’ve had the pleasure of curating acquisition campaigns for social media, cross-platform campaigns for partners and I’ve worked on video content for both internal communications and social media content.

I inject personality & passion into all of my projects both in & outside the office as I believe the best work comes from understanding & applying human touch. Priding myself on my ability to connect with core audiences, I seek to curate work that not only achieves its mission but sparks inspiration & ingenuity.

During the last 12-18 months at my previous position as a Graphic Designer for a small printing company, Print On Wood, I had the opportunity to expand my role from in-house graphic designer to include social media & marketing coordination. Responsibilities that came from this included
co-managing our company social media account, curating & optimising campaigns, building positive client relationships, seeking brand partnerships & collaborations with UGC creators and supporting promotional campaigns on Facebook Ads Manager. Those responsibilities also support a proven track record of increased engagement, brand awareness on social media, average order value, repeat clients & client satisfaction.

Those responsibilities have sparked a genuine excitement towards this sort of work which is what’s driven me to take that next step into my career and pursue graphic designer roles that are intertwined with the marketing/social media teams. I see myself apart of a collaborative team with a multitude of responsibilities that range from graphic design specific to social media related.
