Neal Lankester

As a graphic designer and creative department leader I have extensive experience working in both B2B and B2C environments in design, creative, brand development, marketing, film production, digital, advertising, and experiential creative.

I've had the pleasure of working with many of the UK's top creative agencies as both a freelancer and a full-time professional.

Most recently I was the Design Director at Publicis Sapient and am now looking at freelance, contract and fulltime opportunities both locally and in London, ideally working hybridly, or remotely.

Extensive hands-on graphic design and brand design experience helping businesses deliver their products and services to their clients.

Most recently I was the Design Director at Publicis Sapient, where I headed up the Communications design team, creating brand-related materials including print design, logo and branding developments, internal and external communications and awareness campaigns, copywriting, film and video production, case studies, front end web design and presentation design.

I worked with financial services clients such as Lloyds Banking Group and NatWest, as well as other retail and healthcare clients such as Unilever, Nissan, the AA and Bang and Olufsen. I have also worked very closely with digital engineering capabilities to promote and tell the stories of their digital business transformation programmes.

Prior to this I was a contract creative designer working with London based creative agencies and design companies.

HND in graphics and Advertising and 35+ years of work experience.
