Hello, My name is Mat Walker and I’m a freelance producer specialising in the web. I’m based in Brighton, East Sussex and I’m available for hire to work on contract and consultancy projects in London and across the South East.
My background is in web development and I have over 12 years experience working in the sector – 7 years in web development and 5 years project management.
I’m a ‘hands on’ producer who likes to be involved in all aspects of the project. From the concept and proposal writing stage right through to delivery and signoff.
I’m equally comfortable running agile or waterfall projects. I can adapt your processes and work flows or I had help you develop your own that fit the way you work. To back this up I am Prince 2 certified and have training in Agile Scrum project management methodologies.

User experience
I’m a firm believer in user centered design. The benefits of adopting this approach from the outset will help you get the website your users want from the outset, saving you money in the long run by avoiding making costly changes to a live website. Remember – it’s a lot cheaper changing wireframes than changing code!
