What does your role at Al Jazeera entail? As global art director I'm responsible for all design and promotions-related content and issues in London, New York, Sarajevo, Washington DC and in our smaller studios in Paris, Berlin and Moscow. I also work with the creative director in our Doha hub. My brief covers all on-screen design including the daily news information graphics content and as well as programme branding, music and set design. Workplace environment has recently taken up a great deal of my time due to the fast-paced expansion of Al Jazeera Media Network in recent years. Talent spotting and creative recruitment is a fundamental part of my role.
