About

Elijah Nicholson

Studio Manager | Creative Operations | Workflow & Automation.

Based in London, UK

I’m a Studio Manager with a background in creative production, workflow optimisation, and automation. Having built my career from the ground up as a designer and artworker, I understand the creative process from initial production through to final delivery.

I use that hands-on experience to manage teams, improve workflows, and build systems that make creative operations more efficient and scalable. Currently at Wellcom London embedded at Christie's, I lead a team of three and oversee studio workload, resource planning, technical delivery, and process improvement.

A large part of my focus is on the space between creative and operations: designing monday.com workflows and automations, building resource dashboards, and connecting tools across teams to remove friction so creatives can focus on doing great work.

Core Focus Areas

  • Creative Operations & Workflow: End-to-end briefing, resource planning, and production handovers using monday.com and custom automations.
  • Resource & Capacity Management: Single-source systems that give teams clear visibility over workload, availability, and priorities.
  • Creative Systems & Governance: Global Figma frameworks that improve brand consistency, support onboarding, and enable team independence.
  • Technical Production: Hands-on expertise across After Effects, InDesign, Photoshop, Figma, print, and digital asset delivery.
  • Team Leadership: Managing direct reports and partnering with Account Management and Marketing to translate requirements into clear production plans.
