Who I work with
Whether you’re a marketing manager with more on your list than hours in the day, an agency that needs another designer when the work piles up, or a business owner ready for design that looks as professional as you are, I can help.
Marketing managers
You’re managing a team and a busy calendar of campaigns, reports and events. You need a designer who gets to grips with your guidelines and keeps everything consistent, from a one-off publication to a full event identity.
Design agencies
When work comes in faster than your team can handle, I can step in, pick up your client’s brand quickly and match the quality they expect, so deadlines are met without stretching your team further.
Business owners
You’ve got by with Canva so far, but your business has grown and your branding hasn’t kept up. Whether you’re launching something new or ready for a rebrand, I’ll create a brand that fits where your business is now, and is easy for you to use.
Kind words from happy clients
"Working with Jo is always rewarding. Not only is she a brilliant creative, most importantly she’s a fantastic listener too. She interprets briefs in imaginative and unexpected ways that still meet our objectives. Her research and lateral thinking are second to none. (Often there are too many good things to choose from!) Jo’s calm, good-humoured approach, and clear thinking means that we find solutions in a spirit of collaboration and practically. Highly recommended."
Chris James
Head of Brand – Scouts
"I worked closely with Jo, on a pitch document for a new partnership for Scouts. Jo was extremely helpful in all aspects and took on board all of our briefing notes, our feedback and our amendments to ensure we had a really professional looking document, in line with our brand and yet it stood out from our usual documents. Speediness of replies, patience with our changes and all round professionalism were the hallmarks of working with Jo and I would recommend her to others. I look forward to working with her again."
Kathy O'Brien
Head of Corporate Partnerships – Scouts
"We really enjoyed working with Jo on our recent project. She went above and beyond to deliver exceptional work within a very tight deadline. Jo kept us informed every step of the way and gave us complete confidence throughout the project. We couldn't be happier with the final deliverables and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and professional partner."
Jade Colton
Marketing Manager – TECgirls
"I was fortunate enough to work with Jo across a number of campaigns supporting the growth and development of Scout Adventures. Jo’s creative flair and understanding of audience segmentation resulted in exciting, innovative and user focused solutions. Jo goes beyond responding to the requirements of a creative briefs. She interprets and presents ideas that consciously challenge the status quo."
Lyndsey Nassim
Head of Marketing – CQI
"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jo on numerous design projects over the past two years. She is a brilliant creative who consistently delivers great work. She excels at brand design and has successfully created many large-scale campaigns for Scouts. Jo is also highly organised, calm, patient and develops good working relationships with everyone. A lovely person and brilliant designer."

Hi, I'm Jo
I'm an independent graphic and brand designer based in Essex, working across London and the UK. I work with marketing teams and event organisers to design brands, campaigns and materials that people notice and understand.
The outdoors is where I recharge, so designing for organisations that help people explore and discover new things feels like a natural fit.
I work like part of your team. I get to know your brand, your audience and how you like to work, so you're not re-briefing someone new every time.
