At Plusnet I was responsible for usability, accessibility and interaction design of intranet applications & the customer-facing web portal. I promoted the use of user-centred design techniques around the business such as regular usability testing. I also used my knowledge of emerging technologies to create working prototypes of suggested improvements, many of which were subsequently developed into full solutions. Working in a large company gave me an interest in business analysis and taught me how to liaise between departments with different immediate interests in order to attain a common goal.
