Graeme Blackwood UX · Creative · Product direction

28 years building digital products. Half of that in fintech, payments, investment platforms and cyber fraud prevention

The shape of it

Expert across UX, creative and product direction.

I've led teams agency‑side, client‑side, and in startups. Most recently tackling financial crime at HM Revenue & Customs, and helping make crypto neo-banking mainstream at Ready — formerly Argent.

Hands on, end to end.
