Peter Silk

Creative Designer

London, United Kingdom
Hey, my name is Peter Silk and I'm a Graphic Designer based in London.

I graduated from the University of Portsmouth where I studied Graphic Design. After graduating I landed a job at a marketing and design agency specialising in retail and hospitality industries.

Day to day, I work both independently and collectively to deliver complex briefs in a simple and engaging way. I enjoy a being part of the project every step of the way. Everything from attending the initial briefing with the client, through to artwork elements for print production.

I am a hard working and dedicated team player and I can't wait for my next adventure!

Work Experience

IRFC Studio

Graphic Design

As a Creative Designer I am responsible for working both independently and collectively on current design briefs. As well as weekly management of my own schedule.

I have been lucky enough to work on high quality branding projects all the way through to FMCG packaging designs for some of the biggest snack providers in the UK.

I also manage all elements of the print process. Everything from artworking to sourcing printers and stock all through to sending elements to print, including quality control and delivery of goods.

Client liaison is another aspect of my role, which includes direct contact with clients, meetings and site visits.

In addition, I always aim to help and support other members of staff both technically or otherwise
