Who We Are

I bring more than 18 years of industry experience starting at Hemscott Group where I worked from 2004 to 2008 and where I began as a web developer before progressing to project manager, and then Head of Web Development. I also spent time working for Morningstar IR and Investis, the latter at which I spent 7 years, working both in their London and New York offices as a Senior Consultant and then Director of UX and Design respectively.

Outside of work I love everything to do with music – listening and making – as well as anything creative such as film, tv, art and books. Long walks and even longer bike rides are also a must.

Hey! I’m Shanice, a Project Manager based in Cambridge. I’ve been working within the design industry for 9 years. Starting off as a graphic designer, co-running a small digital agency. After selling the company, and having a small break to hang out with a super cool kid, I joined the acquiring company in a PM capacity. Now within the fantastic team at BrighterIR, helping guide projects to completion.

Normally found laughing, watching movies, and partaking in a random creative hobby – often with cake to hand.

Hey, I’m James, I’m a Project Manager at Brighter IR currently based down in beautiful Cornwall. I have over a decade of experience within creative industries, working in Film, Music and Design. The combination of people, good design and process will always be an exciting one for me, I enjoy the journey! Out of work I spend as much time as I can being active, I enjoy walking trails or surfing, and generally like to be immersed in nature whenever possible!

Hi! I’m Karolina, a Business Development Manager at Brighter IR, focusing on building great relationships with existing and prospective clients and helping them get the most out of what we offer. I previously worked within an IR solutions agency, and as such bring a strong understanding of the industry and how to deliver real value to clients.

When I’m not busy connecting with clients, you’ll probably find me travelling, seeking out great food with friends, or unwinding with a Killer Sudoku.

Hi, I’m Sam, the Digital Client Manager at Brighter IR. I’m based in London and my background is in technical client support. I enjoy building relationships with clients, working together to solve their problems and helping them to get the most out of our products.

When I’m not at work, you’ll find me trying a new London coffee spot, watching the Formula One, or swimming in my local lake.

Hello, my name is Fred, I’m based in the South West of the UK, in Cornwall. After a few years of working for local agencies and some time as a freelance web developer, I found my calling with Brighter IR where I get to work with some really beautiful designs to turn them into fully functioning websites. My favourite part of building websites is adding subtle animations and interactions, aiming to create a great experience for all visitors.

I like to keep a nice contrast between tech and nature in my life, so when I’m not in front of the computer you can usually find me in the ocean either surfing, swimming or fishing.

Hello there, I am William and I am proud to be Brighter IR’s first and only Glaswegian! Working from sunny Scotland as a Web Developer I am responsible for building websites and taking on client support requests.

Outside of work you’ll find me with my eyes glued to my iPad doing some kind of digital art, watching my favourite football team (Celtic) or any other football for that matter, spending time with my partner and son or gaming away on the PS5.

Based in Norwich, I joined the Brighter IR team after freelancing for nearly 10 years developing WordPress websites and plug-ins. I’m grateful for the opportunity to turn our great looking designs into fully-functional, responsive WordPress websites.

Outside of work I’m normally found in the water, on a bike or in a pair of running shoes. I will happily bore anyone willing to listen about my adventures in triathlon. So far I have ten Ironman distance triathlons and several marathons under my belt and am perpetually training for or recovering from some form of long distance endurance race.

Hi! I’m Clayton — a developer with over 6 years of hands-on experience and nearly two decades in tech overall. I love building things, solving problems, and learning as I go. When I’m not at the keyboard, you’ll usually find me hanging out with my daughter, off discovering something new together.
