John Walker’s Experience

• Partner

  Red Paper Design

  (Publishing industry)

  2007 — Present (2 years)

  Publishing project management. Specialising in children's trade and educational books. We offer to manage publishing projects, using experienced UK and european authors, editors, illustrators and photographers. We design to your approval in-house and can outsource follow-on page layout to India to reduce design and production costs. We carefully manage outsource partners in order to maintain design integrity and decrease the overall cost of the project compared with one completed solely in the UK.
  
  We are also happy to take on amendments to co-editions for publishing in different countries. We can help with all or part of a project depending on your needs.

  Macwiz

  (Information Technology and Services industry)

  1996 — Present (13 years)

  Prior to 2007 Macwiz was the collective name for both my freelance publishing and IT activities as there was considerable overlap. However, in 2008 we decided to split the business so that Red Paper Design reflects my publishing work and Macwiz my IT Consultant role.
