Founded in 1888, The Financial Times is a world-renowned publisher of business and economic news in both print and a range of digital platforms.
Since 2007 I have been the Head of Design & User Experience, responsible for the design of all of our digital products. Initially, my remit solely covered our flagship website, ft.com, but was later expanded to cover our extensive range of other specialist products such as The Banker, fDi Intelligence and Investor’s Chronicle.
We have also launched a wide range of other products over the years; we launched our first mobile site on m.ft.com, followed later by our multi-award-winning iPhone and iPad app. This was itself replaced by our pioneering HTML5 web app optimised for iOS, Android and Windows 8.
Other mobile products include a standalone app for our How To Spend It magazine, our Weekend magazine and a guide to hotels and restaurants across the world, as well as several companion apps to our specialist financial websites.
There have been countless new product launches under the FT umbrella that I’ve worked on, from our breaking news service, FastFT, through email newsletters and apps for TVs, watches and even cars.
