Direct Reports
You will have responsibility for at least one support designer who will report directly to you. You will be responsible for the distribution of workload to your support designer. This will be your opportunity to mentor and develop a less senior designer. You will be responsible for their skills development and performance management through regular mentoring, 1:1’s and appraisals. This should provide you with the opportunity to grow your own skills as a design leader. If workload dictates than an additional support designer would be allocated to you.
