Royal Mail
(Public Company; 10,001 or more employees; Information Technology and Services industry)

My main task is to improve the usability and accessibility of projects throughout the eExpress process. I write reviews at the following project stages:
• information architecture
• visual design
• implementation
• site integration
To support site integrity, I create coding standards for presentational code, i.e.:
• presentational JSP
• CSS
• Flash
• PFD etc.
Success criteria
• Fewer and less serious usability problems reported to Customer services
• Fewer complaints from disabled people to Customer services
• Old and new presentational code has fewer bugs, is easier to maintain and adheres to standards -

Project manager / Information Architect
Twist Image
(Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Marketing and Advertising industry)
August 2004 — April 2005 (9 months)
Clients should be able to come to you with nothing more than an itch and a dream. My job at Twist Image was to interrogate that itch, develop that dream, turn it into a project plan, make it happen, do whatever to make sure that we surpassed expectations.
In a nutshell, I:
» Assessed website requirements
» Created rapid prototypes that expressed overall architecture i.e. navigation scheme, user trajectories and calls to action
» Set project timelines, production schedules and made sure we delivered on time
» Kept clients informed of progress and handled change requests
» Accepted a lot of praise on behalf of a creative and inspired team
