I had the pleasure of working with Sean for a year as he led UX Design in the Content Platforms programme at News UK. Sean has been a really talented member of the team and a great collaborator who would raise the bar wherever he goes. His communication skills (both listening and speaking) are excellent, and he absorbs understanding of the briefly effectively before injecting his methodical approach in solving problems.
During Sean's time at News UK, he conducted powerful research in our newsrooms to understand how our journalists use the tools at their disposal and the challenges they faced. He then presented this research back to our team and stakeholders, as well as designing numerous pieces of functionality across our brands. Sean added real value for our team and it was only organisational changes that meant we had to let him go, but I would happily take him back in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Sean while at BAE Systems. I quickly realized that he is a talented UX designer and a great team player.
Sean was always focussed on delivering the highest quality solution to a client brief and would stop at nothing until this was achieved.

I worked closely with Sean pairing on the award winning project at John Lewis: Partner Devices. His ability to tackle design problems and produce customer focus solutions show his passion, knowledge and great understanding of UX. It was an absolute pleasure working with Sean, I’d recommend him to work for any team and hope that our paths cross again in the future.
