Stephen Lindley , macclesfield, United Kingdom

I am a Senior Creative with over 30 years experience working across all media from digital to print. I believe in simple, elegant design which has purpose and communicates appropriately. I am passionate about all aspects of design from branding through to motion graphics, and my passion is infectious. I love mentoring and nurturing talent and watching people flourish. I am dedicated, self motivated and highly professional. Time management of others and myself is excellent always ensuring all projects are completed before time and within budget.

I have a long history of transforming working practices and streamlining workflow pipelines for organisations, introducing new ways of working and thinking. I have a deep knowledge and understanding of working in cross functional teams and how to get the best out of said teams

Having worked in digital for the past 20 plus years I have an in-depth knowledge of user needs and behaviours enabling me to design and to create highly usable and accessible products.

Over the past ten years I have built and lead several design teams across multiple organisations as well as influencing design thinking and behaviours for large multi national clients

I am adept at directing multi-disciplined teams, collaborating with individual specialists, running user workshops and I am just as happy creating concepts, prototypes, design systems, pattern libraries, scamps, user flows, wireframes or detailed designs.

I can tackle any project, from illustration, branding, 3d modelling, animation and motion graphics, across multiple channels and at scale. I have worked with some of the biggest household names including Unilever on their global marketing website and brand guidelines, premium car brands Lexus and Toyota on their pan European websites, and am currently working with the NUS on renaming, rebranding and relaunching their student discount offering, its basically a digital transformation piece.
