Hi!

I’m Edd Baldry, a multi-disciplined digital project manager.

After living in London and Paris I’m now enjoying the sunshine in Bristol. I’ve worked for a whole number of awesome people including the United Nations, Campaign against the Arms Trade, Panos London and CLIC Sargent.


Arming all Sides

2014
Working again with On the Record and the Campaign Against the Arms Trade we produced a website for the hundred year anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War. The site acted as a resource for the research the two organisations had undertaken about the arms trade before and during the war. I project managed the iterative development of the site from design to delivery, implemeenting a modular content builder that allowed us to use the richness of the material, from illustrations, photos and quotes, to allow as immersive an experience as possible. The website can be visited at http://armingallsides.org.uk.

Sounds from the Park

2013
I worked with community interest company On the Record to develop their Sounds from the Park project. The worked encompassed an exhibition at the Bishopsgate Institute, along with a complimentary website and booklet for people to discover further information about the unique atmosphere at Speakers’ Corner. The exhibition was exhibited at the Bishopsgate Institute between November 2013 – April 2014.

On the Record

2013
On the Record is a small, not for profit co-operative, who seek to uncover untold stories. I was asked by them to develop their web presence, branding and identity. I worked collaboratively with them to develop their identity around the idea of amplifying voices and ensuring that the focus was on the participants rather than the organisation.

Fiabilis

2013

I was asked to develop the branding, and design of an app, for a new French company aiming to make buying products more secure both for the customer and vendor. The identity was created around a playful twist on Sherlock Holmes, and the French idea of “Le gentleman”. Based on user stories, and personas, that we developed in collaboration I developed a clear and clean app user-interface. The app was released in early 2014, but is unfortunately no longer available.

Panos London

2009 – 2012
Panos London was an international development organisation based in the UK. Taking an agile apporach, I project managed the re-development of their website to make content clearer to access, easier to update and allow greater participation from different members of the Panos team. As part of the project we developed personas, user stories and collaborative documents to ensure the project was as user centred as possible. I project managed the development with Lumpy Lemon, juggling over 10,000 different files and ensured that the project was delivered according to plan. A number of rounds of user acceptance testing was undertaken to ensure different collaborators could give their opinion on the work. Unfortunately Panos London closed in December 2012. I was asked to design the legacy website, and ensure an archive version of the website remained in place.

What people have said

  • Edd has project managed two websites, a publication and an exhibition for us at On the Record. At one time producing three outputs simultaneously for one project. We have been extremely happy with the high quality of his work. Edward always communicates well, taking extra time to give us well thought through instructions and explanations. We would not hesitate to recommend him.

    Rosa Vilbr

    On the Record

  • We’ve collaborated with Edd on two projects now. His rigor, professionalism and good humour have created a seasoned professional who can calmly meet the, often urgent, needs of a communication agency. His work is remarkable because Edd has many strings to his arrow: he covers all the fields of design with passion and dedication. He’s always the first to arrive and the last to leave!

    Gérôme Perrier

    Sixieme sans Ascenseur

  • Edd designed and coordinated the development of a brand new homepage for the Panos London legacy website. He was excellent to work with. He offered clear and efficient, planning, delivered a great design and was very patient with our amendments and suggestions. His combination of design and technical skills was a great help to a harassed communications team and the project was completed on time and within budget.

    Panos London / BBC Media Action

  • As a small charity we needed a digital project manager who could deliver a website as cost effectively and in as “user friendly” way as possible. Edd exceeded this brief beautifully and we would recommend him whole heartedly. His knowledge and expertise made it a pleasurable experience for all concerned. We were delighted with such an elegantly structured website.
