About

Hi my name is Joe O’Shea, and I am originally from the UK. I see this opportunity as a way to contribute to an exciting fast-moving company, and I feel I can do so with my previous experience working in a fast paced environment before where innovation was key. I feel my skills are particularly well-suited to this position because my previous experience using motion design and other social media strategies to promote events and products on social media and building up the brand. I believe I have the type of knowledge to succeed in this role and at the company because. As a creative person I have always enjoyed looking at advertisement campaigns and brands, trying to brake them down and see how they work for as long as I can remember. I often find my self coming up with ideas and solutions to problems. My professional career began by designing materials for agency work at WrightObara. Here, I had the opportunity to work with large, well-known brands such as LG and Huawei in a fast-paced environment. Moving on to an in-house position at Plenham Ltd. A company in the automotive sector in 2018, I first got to focus on editorial work for the Bodyshop magazine. This position then progressed on to motion graphics and digital work to promote and to work in international events. As well as the UI for the event applications. In my leisure time I enjoy doing creative, hands-on projects on my own or with friends. Especially drawing and painting but also wood works and other craft projects spark my interest . Other passions of mine include cooking, board game nights with friends and exploring nature on a hike in the nearby Black Forest or the Swabian Albs. I am fully invested in making the world a better place and would love to work with a brand that shares these values.
