UX/UI Product Designer
Scott Liston
About
I’m a UX/UI Product Designer, creating cross-platform experiences for mobile, tablet, web, smart streaming and global television broadcasting. I'm currently engaged in component driven visual journalism, creating Design Systems & Story-telling formats to support BBC News journalists with their global coverage.
As a UAL Alumni, I've been able to merge my traditional design skills with General Assembly's user-centric train-of-thought to create a hybrid skillset; producing responsive, evidence-based design across all devices.
My experience within media, advertising and broadcasting, as well as the progressive tech industry, has provided me with a range of experiences that has helped me work across start up, corporate, agency, and pressured live studio environments. This broad understanding has provided me with empathetic communication and strong productivity & prototyping skills, which I can deliver with an accessible, commercial mindset for both B2B and B2C businesses.
I'm also a professionally trained Whiteboard Explainer, translating workshops & meeting ideas into visually appealing metaphors. This nice-to-have skill makes business goals more memorable and can help complement a company's collaborative strategy.

Testimonials
Priya Balsara - Product Manager

"I really enjoyed working with Scott at Channel 4, he looks at each design challenge with a creative yet pragmatic eye. His super friendly and approachable nature is also really welcomed. Everything always feels like a truly collaborative effort with Scott; his determination to take on board stakeholder considerations whilst still staying true to the users that he's designing for is truly impressive and much appreciated!"
"I had the pleasure to work with Scott at Channel 4, where he was recruited to drive forward key initiatives around onboarding, engagement and personalisation. Scott quickly established credibility through his output, but had especially high impact working with difficult stakeholders, where he proved calm, objective and patient while working through complex problems. He used service design techniques and strong interpersonal skills to forge consensus with colleagues of diverse opinions and business agendas. Scott is talented, obliging and humble. I would happily work with him again."

"Scott led the UX on a couple of Ford’s digital projects; he’s a great designer with a good eye for detail and isn’t afraid to challenge bad design when he sees it! He also has a great attitude - very collaborative, excellent communication, friendly, and easy to work with."

"Scott's outstanding dedication is a rare, yet much needed, breath of fresh air. Without Scott's considerable contribution, and unmatched pace, our EMEA project would be dead-in-the-water. Scott's expertise make him a force to be reckoned with. He not only has vision, he has creativity and an innate ability to capture exactly what the stakeholder describes."

Neurodiversity, values & ethics
Sharing what we learn is an essential part of human development, what excites me most about UX Design is its fairness to incorporate different people's needs, perspectives and contributions.
Throughout my professional career, this democratic and unified approach has been the most effective, inspiring and rewarding process for me as a neurodiverse creative.
In this video example, I present the team's inclusive design principles regarding accessibility needs for an ADHD user.
I recently signed The Tech Pledge which aligns with these design values. You can find more information about making products that contribute good to our society here.
Learning from others helps us craft products that can benefit us all, allowing us to combine accessible functionality with an all-inclusive form. I value being part of a team that creates meaningful product development because it's an engagement that helps to optimise all of our lives.
