Joe is one of the best design leaders I've ever had the pleasure of working with. He's a rare breed. Someone who not only deeply understands his craft across all areas of design, from visual and brand to product design, but also excels as a people manager.

He was pivotal in shaping Zing's product design and brand identity, ensuring seamless alignment between our product experience and visual campaigns. His vision and execution brought our brand to life in a way that feels both cohesive and compelling. Joe also designed our award-winning card and created a fantastic unboxing experience that elevated our brand and delighted our customers.

Beyond his craft, Joe is an exceptional leader. He has seamlessly managed a multidisciplinary team of product designers, visual designers, and user researchers, creating an environment where great design thrives. People consistently rave about him as a manager—he supports, challenges, and elevates those around him.

On top of all that, he's been a true thought partner to me as we shaped the design direction for Zing. His ability to balance strategic vision with flawless execution makes him an invaluable asset to any organization. Any team would be lucky to have him.”

Joe is one of the finest design leaders I have had the privilege to work with. As Head of Design at Zing, he not only set a clear design strategy but also rolled up his sleeves to work alongside his team.

He navigated organisational changes with confidence, keeping the design team aligned and motivated through transitions.

Joe was deeply invested in his team’s success, helping people build on their strengths and create opportunities to thrive.”

Joe is an A+ leader, manager and creative. At Zing he managed me and around 15 designers and comms specialists while leading the day-to-day of building, launching and evolving an international payments product and brand.

What sets Joe apart is how he runs teams: he gives autonomy, defends quality, and supports people through difficult moments while keeping standards high.”

I had the pleasure of working with Joe for several years while he was VP of Design. As a Lead Designer on the team, I was continually impressed by his leadership skill and clear, confident communication.

Joe helped shape the product vision by influencing user-centred features that delivered real business impact and kept design tightly aligned with strategic goals.”

I had the pleasure of having Joe as my direct manager at both Monese and at Zing by HSBC. He is a brilliant designer with a keen sense of understanding of his end user.

I always appreciated his leadership style; he was collaborative and approachable, and built a team culture grounded in respect, kindness and collaboration.”
