I’m a UX consultant and product/service designer with 20+ years building user-centred digital and SaaS products.
What I'm looking for
I am a UX consultant, product and service designer with 20+ years' experience working across digital and omni-channel projects for global brands. I hold PSPO I & II certifications and focus on solving user needs through research-driven, agile delivery.
My recent work includes lead UX roles at British Telecom, John Lewis and Dentsu, and senior product leadership at Al-Futtaim where I defined roadmaps and improved delivery efficiency. Successes include a John Lewis CRO uplift (12,000,000GBP per annum) and a 95% reduction in development time through strategic technology and vendor decisions.
I bring strong stakeholder management, cross-functional team leadership and hands-on UX practice to create collaborative environments that drive quality, innovation and scalable SaaS or omni-channel solutions.
