Work

Most of the following projects are highlights from my current in-house role as Senior Graphic Designer at GSA, a UK housing association. See the About section for details.

About

Embedding culture and behaviours

One of my first tasks at GSA was to design The GSA Way - GSA’s culture and behaviours framework. ‘Growth’ is a key theme, so I created an organic yet graphic motif to illustrate the organisation’s aim for its own evolution and staff development. The framework was launched with a promotional video which I art-directed, intranet assets, email, printed displays in offices, direct mail and branded PowerPoint presentations. More tangible assets were also created, including a board game for team meetings and branded merchandise.

Launching a five-year business strategy

GSA’s five-year business plan has four main objectives, so I created an identity with four colour-coded elements that also work as a whole. The strategy was launched with multiple outputs, including an intranet hub, an interactive quiz, a televised conference, social media campaigns and more. The project won Gold in the Best Business Change category at Communicate Magazine’s 2024 Internal Comms & Engagement (ICE) Awards.

Moving to a new head office

When GSA consolidated its legacy offices and moved into a new head office at ‘X Brindleyplace’ I was tasked with creating an identity for the process (which I designed to complement our main brand), an interactive colleague guide, intranet assets, office screens and promotional items for the grand opening. I also joined the moving committee and helped to host open mornings ahead of the official opening.

Annual Report

GSA’s customer annual report is given a bespoke design each year. It informs customers of GSA’s successes, opportunities and progress. The report is produced and presented online as an interactive PDF and a link is emailed to customers and stakeholders every September.

The GSAs

For our annual staff awards ceremony, I produce intranet assets to build anticipation, then publish nominees for each category in a bespoke online flipbook. I edit videos of nominators that are shown at the awards ceremony, complemented by a printed souvenir booklet. I also print manage all medals, trophies and certificates, and help to host the event in-person. The awards galvanise team spirit and improve GSA’s employee satisfaction scores. My creative work means the event is highly anticipated every year.

Web design

I design websites that are rooted in brand. Working side-by-side with a developer, I maintain creative control throughout the build, specifically overseeing typography, photography, color, and other assets. This collaborative approach guarantees that functionality never compromises the aesthetic. Click the examples below to open each site in a new tab.

The page shows a banner image of modern housing units, with the headline "Your complete solution for offsite manufactured housing," and a green call-to-action button. There are sections explaining details about the company, its partners, and products.

The Trials of Mrs. Tranter

Recognising system improvements alone wouldn’t drive better outcomes, GSA developed an innovative, immersive training experience, The Trials of Mrs Tranter, to spark behavioural change and improve service delivery. Inspired by murder mystery games, the self-serve training tool places participants in the role of investigators, analysing a realistic customer complaint about damp and mould. Using a high-quality evidence pack - complete with emails, call recordings, photos, and system screenshots, teams identify service failures and reflect on cultural misalignments. The exercise concludes with a Housing Ombudsman-style report and a team discussion, reinforcing accountability and learning.

Bidding for an international audience

As part of the UK Major Pursuits Team at AECOM from 2017-2020, I designed bids for key infrastructure projects around the world, such as airport expansions, railway extensions and city planning. Clients included Neom in Saudi Arabia, Network Rail, Highways England and Heathrow Airport. Bids were often produced to tight deadlines and required technical drawings, maps, complex organisation charts and infographics.
