Since 2008, the NCEM Young Composers Award has been a unique opportunity for young composers in the UK. It’s the only competition of its kind, giving budding composers the chance to explore early music and work closely with professional performers in the field.

The award fits perfectly with NCEM’s passion for education and nurturing fresh talent.

Each year, we design a new look for the award, making sure it works across print, digital, and web.

Covering topics such as pension auto-enrolment, minimum wage increases, payroll deadlines and HMRC changes, the graphics were developed to align closely with the wider visual identity and website. Using consistent typography, colour palettes and messaging, the posts help reinforce brand recognition while turning complex payroll information into accessible, engaging content for clients and followers.
