Bio
Michael Keating
Dave was our account director for the launch of our new website and I can safely say we wouldn't have got anywhere near where we are today without him. He totally got us and our needs, and instead of pushing particular solutions on us, he listened to what we needed, clearly explained our options throughout, keeping our organisation and our users at the centre of things. His knowledge of how things actually work, as well as his foresight and strategic thinking, helped us launch something that went way beyond our original expectations.
Bethany Crowe
I worked with Dave for two years and he is excellent at managing digital projects: friendly, action-driven and strategic. He is a calm and detail-oriented leader who is good at influencing the teams he works with. At Sustrans, he had a significant impact on the charity, encouraging a solid digital presence and use of social media for the charity, which had a significant impact on how the charity communicates I would definitely recommend working with Dave.
