Freelance Front End Developer

Recent projects

Karin Dubois : Innovate Futures

Bob stepped in with a tight deadline to work across two sister websites simultaneously, and he was simply fantastic. Our experience of Bob is that he is dependable, reliable, quick, with all the right expertise to have the sites on test in no time at all. We were beyond thrilled with his delivery and would thoroughly recommend his services.

Caroline Hirst : Aspiral Development Ltd

I would like to thank Bob for creating a wonderful website for me. I went to Bob with a vision for my website. This vision was in the form of a large sheet of paper with lots of blue spirals, some furn and a sunflower drawn on it. From this simple drawing Bob was able to translate my vision into a website which far exceeded my expectations. He was able to guide me through each step of the way with non technical language which I understood and I’m absolutely delighted with the end result. I would thoroughly recommend Bob to anyone with or without a vision for their website.

James Spencer : Managing Director at Portland Fuel

Bob has worked with us on numerous key projects and his work is always absolutely top notch. He is professional, creative and a perfectionist (without being a pain!). He is no relation, but he also has a fantastic surname.

Nick Wright : Studio North

A regular freelancer at Studio North, Bob’s excellent technical ability and broad web development knowledge makes him an extremely valuable extension to our team. A conscientious worker who is able to overcome any technical challenge we put in front of him.

Jeremy Harbord : Gladeye

With Bob Spencer I could not have had better, more helpful technical support to create my websites. With no internet experience myself, he clarified the issues, offered excellent suggestions and produced just what I wanted, quickly and without any hassle, based only on broad initial wish lists

Anne-Marie Johnson : Creative Exchange

The logo that Bob produced for my business, Creative Exchange, is contemporary, vibrant and upbeat. Bob has a natural talent for design and he combines this with a positive professional approach.

His creative ideas began flowing a few minutes into our initial conversation. He then went on to turn the work around in just two days, consulting me at various points. I am delighted with both the end result and of the overall service provided.

Matt Drewry : Match.com

It’s actually a pleasure to recommend Bob and what he’s helped us with in the past. Its no understatement to say Bob has saved the day for us at Match.com on a number of occasions. On complex projects, it’s been refreshing to have utmost confidence that the piece he’s working on will come in on time / budget and with a level of innovation and accuracy that our brand and users demand – leaving me free to worry about other elements.

Bob is technical, skilled at all levels of design, a flash genius, cheerful and amiable. I just wish he would let us hire him permanently!

Richard Hyde : Photolink

I worked with Bob during my time at Photolink Creative Group and cannot commend him highly enough. As far as front end developers go, in my opinion, they don’t come any better than Bob. His attention to detail is meticulous and he always ensures that the build is as close to the design as physically possible. On top of this, his builds are always thoroughly cross-browser tested and always adhere to W3C CSS validation.

His skills stretch well beyond XHTML and CSS and he is also an expert in Flash and ActionScript too, which was fantastic for me as a flash designer working along side him. He’s also a thoroughly nice chap to boot, and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Kay Carter : Photolink

I worked with Bob whilst at Photolink, both as a colleague and on a freelance basis. Bob is very reliable and always delivered projects on time and to the appropriate specification. His work is of a very high standard and I would not hesitate in recommending him.

Bruce Salt : Salt’s Catering

Bob does nearly all our design and website work. www.saltscatering.co.uk hopefully speaks for itself. Always gets work done quicker than I ask and most importantly for a small business, very good value.

Highly recommended.
