Martin Bull
HEERA Committee Member

Head of Publications, University of Hull

Martin has over 20 years experience in publications, graphic design and print, 14 of them as head of department, at the University of Hull. Most of those 20 years included responsibility for all design, advertising, web and general marketing. He reckons he produced the first entirely ‘in-house, DTP’d-to-film-stage’ UK university prospectus back in 1987 – and doesn’t want to do it again. (He also designed much of the University’s range of memorabilia.)

His early career was in operations and IT management and both phases have produced in-depth experience of many areas such as project management, planning, purchasing, contract negotiation, etc.

Outside of the University he is Marketing Director for one the country’s larger music festivals and has also worked on brand design and marketing for several arts development organisations, festivals and individual events and artists.

Other interests include playing several instruments (not at the same time), sailing (particularly square-riggers), clay pigeon shooting, fencing (the sport, not the construction of) and reading.
