Summary
Leanne Alexander is a Chief Technology Officer with 8 years of hands-on experience turning chaotic digital programs into structured, accessible products for ethical tech organisations. She blends strategy, design leadership, and software engineering—continuing to code herself—to ensure decisions are grounded in how products are actually built. Her background spans enterprise front-end work for 25+ brands at JD Sports, WordPress platform and framework development for public and commercial clients, and delivering measurable cost savings through custom tooling and migrations. Leanne is particularly skilled at spotting recurring patterns early, aligning people and priorities under pressure, and embedding accessibility and inclusion by default. Based in South Ribble, she favours sustainable, practical growth over short-term wins and avoids performative leadership in favour of clarity and respect.
