Portfolio — Head of UX // 20+ YRS EXPERIENCE

Design
that
lasts.

I'm Clifton Green — a practitioner-leader who builds enterprise UX at scale.
AI agents. Design systems. Research that moves decisions.
Senior enough to see the horizon. Still close enough to write the code.

02 / Selected Work

Four
problems.
Real impact.

Case studies across AI, design systems, research, and interaction design. Each one with a clear problem, a deliberate pivot, and measurable outcomes.

01
Design System React Brand

100+ component enterprise system spanning UI, brand language, photography, and tone of voice — with a production React library still live today.

02

174-response mixed-methods Maze programme across UK, India and US. Key finding resolved a contested navigation decision with unambiguous evidence.

03 / About

I lead with
craft.
I stay close
to the work.

20+ years building experiences for real people — energy traders, online gamblers, 98,000 bank colleagues trying to book annual leave without wanting to quit their job.

I think in systems but sweat the details. I write production CSS. I run research. I present to MDs and sit with developers in the weeds in the same week. The best design leaders never fully leave the craft behind.

Looking for somewhere I can build something genuinely meaningful at scale.

01
Evidence-led
Research isn't a checkbox. It's how we stop guessing and start knowing.
02
Accessible first
WCAG 2.2 AA isn't a bolt-on. Built into every component from day one.
03
Systems thinker
Every component, pattern and principle connects to a bigger picture.
04
Craft-obsessed
Senior enough to see the horizon. Still close enough to write the code.

Let's make
