I\u2019m Lucy: I’ve been a Web Officer since 2017, and am currently the team lead for the\u202fundergraduate website<\/a>, which is where prospective students can explore our degrees and find out about studying at Exeter.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UG lead role involves coordinating updates to our portfolio of over 200 course webpages, liaising with colleagues in Marketing and Programme Development, and organising the annual \u2018rollover\u2019 to the new application year<\/a>. I particularly enjoy carrying out user research and testing projects, to improve the site content, layout and design through our test and learn approach. I aim to improve the university application experience by making our web content more compassionate, helpful and accessible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The great thing about the Web Team is we get to work on a variety of projects: in the past couple of years I\u2019ve been involved in creating the new Department websites, SEO improvement work and the Clearing campaign, to name a few.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My specialisms are in copywriting\/editing and user experience (UX) \u2013 how easy people find it to navigate and use our website, how it makes them feel and how reliable it is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helping prospective applicants decide if we\u2019re the right university for them is important to me because I\u2019m an Exeter alumna: I studied English here and met my closest friends, who are still a big part of my life.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I\u2019m not building webpages I\u2019m making theatre<\/a>: in 2020-21 I did an MA in Theatre Directing, training with renowned director Katie Mitchell at Royal Holloway University, and I\u2019ve been directing as much as I can since then. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m an associate artist with social and environmental theatre collective\u202fLight The Night Theatre<\/a>, and a founding member of\u202fDevon\u2019s Awkward Pigeon Theatre<\/a>, a professional theatre company supporting new writers, actors and creatives to develop their work.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of work I love singing, pirates, birdwatching (it happens to everyone in their 30s) and being by the sea.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
