Chris Lawton

I build digital platforms that deliver slick, cross-platform user experiences and help organisations fulfil their business aspirations.

I’ve worked with impactful organisations including Mozilla, Samaritans, Oxfam, and the Marine Conservation Society, translating their goals into intuitive, accessible digital products that meet and exceed expectations.

I’m passionate not only about crafting seamless user experiences, but doing so in a way that is efficient, inclusive, and sustainable. My recent focus on accessibility and sustainability ensures the platforms I help build are usable by everyone, regardless of ability or circumstance, and minimise their environmental impact.

Leading the build of the Marine Conservation Society website resulted in a 10x smaller page size and 5x fewer requests compared to the previous site. This has led to faster load times, better search visibility, reduced energy use, and increased accessibility for users on low-bandwidth or data-capped connections. All round, a big success.

Outside of work, I love listening to a vinyl, taking photos or settling in for the Formula 1 on Sundays.
