Turning insight into impact and design into a strategic partner
Nik Evans, Product Design Leader
A bit about me
I build product design organisations that turn their craft into a business advantage. I've led multidisciplinary teams covering product design, content design, research and service design, in complex marketplace environments.
Starting with a deep understanding of users and the problems they're trying to solve, as these form the opportunities to drive real business and commercial outcomes. I stay close to the work, holding the standard on craft and care, and giving teams what they need to do their best work.
I operate at senior leadership levels, partnering with product, technology and commercial to set strategy, build the evidence behind it, and embed design practices that hold up at scale.
