What do you do at Toast?

I’m the Lead website developer here at Toast. My job mainly involves designing and building WordPress websites for our clients. I managed a lot of the web projects here at Toast and see them through from the initial planning stages all the way to completion. I help out with the general day to day management of the digital department as well.

Having a strong background in graphic design is a real advantage when working in web and I do occasionally branch out into a bit of logo or advert design as well.

What’s your favourite thing about working at Toast?

Toast offers me the opportunity to continually develop and increase my creative skill set. Three years ago I was a print designer here, now I am leading the junior members of the digital department and working more on the strategy and planning side. I love working on large WordPress design and build projects, but am equally instead in the data-driven SEO we specialise in delivering to our clients.

What do you like doing outside of Toast?

Outside of Toast I love sport and am a keen swimmer. Over the last four years, I have competed in triathlons, which my colleagues label me as mad for, but I love the physical and mental challenges it offers! I also enjoy reading and I am currently half way through The White Spider, by Heinrich Harrer.
