Mauricio Perez’s Summary

Coming from a strong working knowledge in print and digital design since 1994, I have worked as a Senior Creative for various agencies in both Sydney and London where my designs have won a sprinkling of international awards.

My experience in the last few years has led me to become a true believer in media-neutral, ideas-driven solutions. Such experience has included creative direction of concepts and proposals to capture account growth and generate new business opportunities. I have developed my own strategies for team brainstorms in pitches in new business development, creative brief development and art directing execution.

In addition to this, I have mentored junior and mid-weight creatives and documented career development processes on an individual level. This has proved paramount for promoting continual improvement and a culture of innovation, excellence and accountability within the creative team.
