John Haynes is a design lead and founder with 11 years of experience crafting data-driven product experiences across entertainment, utilities, and ecommerce. Currently leading design at The Pensions Regulator while running a design consultancy and a startup, he combines hands-on product design with strategic fundraising and AI/ML-informed safety modelling. He has repeatedly led and scaled UK design teams and delivered measurable business impact—raising ~£500k to develop an AI risk model at FYLD and launching revenue-generating features as Head of Product at YourWelcome. Comfortable moving between strategy, execution and growth, he’s as fluent in user research and interface systems as he is in translating analytics into product decisions. Based in Eastbourne, his background in TV production and multimedia gives him a storyteller’s instinct for designing experiences that resonate.
