    • Parktown, Johannesburg

    Did full regional re-brand, including all brochures, above and below the line advertising, stationery, etc. in October 2009. A real learning experience! Would love to work with a team again, it is lonely being the only designer for five offices in SA, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Botswana & Zambia. It's great having the freedom (and the responsibility), but I miss the creative sounding board. I also train staff on PowerPoint and am the official photographer for events. Besides printed design, I also design the website, html mailers and invitations and work extensively in Dreamweaver. As the sole designer, I am accountable to the international design office in London, and have to conform to all BDO international CI standards rigorously. This has been accomplished to such an extent, that BDO South Africa was named 'best practice' for CI in the international BDO network, and I have been designated as the Brand Ambassador for Sub-Saharan Africa. It is my responsibility to ensure that the entire network complies to all CI standards and that all communication from BDO Southern Africa complies to the international standard.
