Matt Philpotts

I am a graphic designer with extensive experience leading creative work across branding, print, digital and motion. Most recently I held the role of Brand and Design Lead, where I was responsible for guiding design output across multiple channels and ensuring that every project connected with its intended audience.

My career has taken me through a wide range of industries including pharmaceuticals, education, video games, fintech and global technology. Working across these sectors, both nationally and internationally, has given me a broad perspective and the ability to adapt quickly, always with the aim of creating design that delivers real impact.

My skills span the full spectrum of design: branding, print, digital and web, UI/UX, software and video game design, as well as video and motion graphics. I have led rebrands, large-scale campaigns and website relaunches, and overseen creative output across everything from software and film to marketing and web.

I have worked extensively across global markets including the United States, Singapore, Japan, Korea and Europe. Many of my projects have required localisation, with design and messaging translated into Japanese, French, German, Korean and other languages. Along the way I have collaborated with colleagues and agencies across these regions, building strong partnerships from California to Tokyo to deliver work that resonates across cultures.

What drives me is the belief that design is not just about appearance, but about how it works and the value it creates. I have worked directly with CEOs and CFOs on investor-facing materials such as annual reports and presentations, ensuring design supports business growth and communicates with clarity. I also played a key role during the acquisition of a company by a global private equity firm, supporting the transition through communications and design.

For me, design is about clarity, purpose and creating meaningful connections between organisations and their audiences.
