ROBERT MCBRIDE
London
Summary
I’ve spent the last few years working across both stock management and creative production, where keeping things organised, accurate, and running smoothly has always been key. In office-based environments, I’ve played a key role in team support, liaised directly with clients to deliver successful projects, and ensured operations ran efficiently. I’m confident managing logistics, maintaining a well-organised space, and being the go-to person for keeping things on track — and I’m now looking to take that experience into a dedicated office-based role.
