The Energy Saving Trust is rebranding itself as a charitable foundation with a business arm. As we needed to refresh the website, I and my colleagues in the marketing team wanted to take the opportunity to improve the functionality too, which included a radical rethink of how we used the CMS’s translation mechanism. Neither the design team nor the technical agency has a UX, so I have taken on that role, writing functional specifications for the new elements, working out some of the technical integration into eZpublish, a CMS I now know very well, and doing the liaison between design and tech and the client that’s such a fundamental part of a UX’s job. I’m now working on the IA and taxonomy for the site, and planning how to do the back-end restructure.
