Working with both Marketing and IT Development departments.I am responsible for the website and app design, UX and the front end developement, including responsive emails.I use analytics on a daily basis to track the website to seewhere conversion and SEO improvements can be made.My biggest win to date was during a rebranding exercisewhewhere I had to rebuild the website from inception to finishedproduct in a very tight deadline ready for a launch party.
The design, creation and building of websites for a wide variety of clients including the NHS, public sector, social networks and small businesses to multi-nationals. Working along side design agencies I generally take the site visuals and convert them into html adding functionality, movement and the interaction along the way, either turning the designs into templates which then go into the front end ofa bespoke content managed system or building them as a bespoke content managed system or building them as static websites. My biggest win at See Green was the design andbuild of a new CMS (SeeCMS).
