About Chris Constantine – Chris Constantine

Over 30 years in design and communications

Today’s workload is primarily digital, but my journey started in print design and production back in the late 80s. In the ensuing years I have adapted to new technologies, changing methodologies and, importantly, shifts in customer behaviours and expectations.

Whilst I now work on a contract basis, I have an agency background of directing teams of talented user experience specialists and creatives. This leadership role is still called upon by clients who hire me to provide a steer on projects where multiple disciplines are at play and senior product ownership is required.

In my current contract role I am delivering everything from workshops and field research through to strategy presentations, prototypes and functional specifications.

Over the years I have worked at boutique agencies as well as the big guns. I have been seconded within the WPP group to provide specialist insight and creative direction. I’ve also done a good amount of contracting, providing team management, research, strategy and design.

Additionally I have worked in lighting design, print publishing, promotions and even had a colourful time as a radio presenter in the last millennium.

Back to the present and I’m enjoying crafting and honing experiences for a variety of clients who require successful insight-led designs that are driven through research, prototyping and iteration.

A lot of my work is designed to meet very specific and measurable KPIs. It also spans geographic and cultural boundaries, adding challenges and interest which keeps me in an industry I continue to enjoy.

The working landscape has changed considerably in recent years and I now often collaborate with teams based in multiple locations. I have found remote working to be productive and preferable, especially as I split my time between coastal Ramsgate or the mountains of Andalusia (where the internet connection is terrific). However, I appreciate some projects require face to face elements and I am available to travel for occasional meetings, workshops, research sessions and the like.

Clients and brands

I have been very fortunate to work with some great clients and their brands.
