No not at all. GA permissions are unrelated to Site Collection rights. From the SharePoint Admin Center, highlight the site in question and go to Permissions > Manage Admins as shown below.

Make sure your account is included here.

I don't have a 'manage admins' option, just 'manage group owners' and 'manage additional owners'.

I've made sure I'm in both lists, but still no web designer gallery permissions.

  OK, try using the SharePoint Online Management Shell and run the following commands, just to double check the customization settings for this site.
  
  Connect-SPOService -Url https://tenantname-admin.sharepoint.com
  
  Set-SPOSite -Identity https://tenantname.sharepoint.com/sites/sitename -DenyAddAndCustomizePages $false

    Thanks for the suggestion PeterRising - don't have the management shell installed on my computer at home because I'm a Mac user. I'll try this on. my windows machine when I'm in the office tomorrow.
