Since working at RedEye I have embraced every opportunity, I have expanded my knowledge and skills whilst applying all aspects of email and web design. My main role at Redeye is designing and coding responsive emails, bug fixing, render testing, liaising with clients, best practice and keeping up with current email trends. I am in charge of taking the clients projects from concept all the way to completion delivering it to the agreed timescales. I would often be a go to person for problem solving when it came to an email not rendering properly, whether it was a colleague having troubles or a problem with an email built by a client. My role was not limited to email design, I would also be involved in designing and building unsubscribe and preference pages. I also have built internal websites like a help guide with code snippets, template builder, icon library and the design studio website. Whilst I have been at RedEye I have also had to opportunity to help give advice, guidance and to teach skills when needed to colleagues within the client services team and to clients. On a daily basis I liaise with a number of clients and internal teams, to communicate project status, meetings and a variety of information.
From my vast experience I now feel that I am ready for a new challenge, I feel that this would enable me to improve on and strengthen my abilities.
