creative solutions coordinator

wilson james

The role of Creative Solutions coordinator included delivering a range of creative and digital projects that supported both the company's brand and internal communications. My work included designing client presentations, creating engaging social media content, leading the redevelopment of the company SharePoint platform to improve accessibility, and managing multi-site photography for the launch of a new website.

I had the opportunity to work with Refugee Support Group, a Reading based charity that supports people seeking sanctuary. They were looking for new ways to raise awareness of their updated name and strengthen their visibility with statutory funders. I was selected alongside another designer to help shape that communication.

As part of a collaborative project, six social media posts and a short animation were developed to highlight the impact of the organisation's services and encourage continued support from partner organisations. The project pushed me to grow creatively as I explored videography, photography and illustration. This experience also allowed me to learn how to navigate professional relationships within the circle of design.
