During my 15 years at Forex Capital Markets, I held a key role in the company’s design and web team, progressing from a senior designer to the head of the design and web team. Forex Capital Markets, a leading name in the financial trading sector, operated numerous offices globally and offered a broad array of products and trading stations. My tenure involved a wide range of web and print projects, essential for supporting the company's extensive and dynamic operations.
Main websites were a core focus of my role, crucial for presenting the company’s diverse offerings and engaging with a global audience. The website had to reflect the company’s sophisticated brand while providing comprehensive, up-to-date information about trading products and services. Given the fast-paced nature of the Forex market, where daily market fluctuations required immediate updates, the main websites needed to be highly responsive and adaptable.
The work environment was intensely busy, with the web team responsible for continuous support and maintenance of the main company sites and their various language versions. Websites grew and evolved daily, with an expanding number of pages and frequent updates to promote new products and respond to market changes. My role involved overseeing these updates, ensuring that the sites remained current and aligned with the company’s objectives.
Our team’s efforts went beyond mere updates; we aimed to enhance user experience and functionality while maintaining a high standard of visual appeal. Each website was designed to provide a seamless user experience, with intuitive navigation and engaging content that highlighted the company’s strengths and innovations.
The success of our main websites played a vital role in the company's ability to attract and retain clients, contributing significantly to the company’s growth and success. The work was both challenging and rewarding, driven by the need to stay ahead in a competitive market and support the company’s strategic goals. Working with an exceptional management team and talented colleagues made this role particularly enriching, fostering continuous improvement and excellence in our web design and strategy.
