About Graeme Thomas
My name is Graeme Thomas, and I am a freelance creative director with 20+ years of experience.
I’ve worked with a number of household names, cutting-edge agencies, FMCG and big brands, enabling me to work in many areas of design across digital and print mediums.
In addition to the usual graphic design services you would expect from a freelancer, I provide high-level creative leadership on a fractional basis, overseeing brand strategy and campaign execution whilst aligning with your business goals.
I excel in owning a project from start to finish, taking a project from its early stages and coming up with creative direction and technical conceptualisation, to managing the whole process and leading teams across design, product, IT and development, and executing everything right up to the finished product.
I offer a fully flexible service and have grown my business to include two fantastic senior graphic designers, a web developer, and a strong network of freelance talent including a project manager and a video editor, helping with capacity on larger projects, those with a tight deadline and specialist web builds.
Based in the UK, I work with businesses all over the world including North America, Europe and Asia, and often shift my working hours to accommodate time zone differences, travel internationally where projects require it, and invoice in local currencies.
Please see my individual services pages for more details and examples of my work.
Background and experience
I began my career in editorial design, working in a production department designing multiple magazine titles. This provided a strong foundation in structure, consistency and working to deadlines.
Since going freelance in 2011, I have worked across a wide range of projects, including:
- websites and digital platforms
- presentation design and templates
- digital marketing assets and campaigns
- print publications and reports
- e-learning and instructional design
Having worked across agencies, in-house teams, publishing environments and production roles, I have a broad understanding of the full design lifecycle, from initial planning through to final output.
