Senior digital design support for UK businesses working from Cape Town


I’m Sharon Leslie. I work with UK businesses as a remote extension of their team, delivering brand, website and digital design that’s strategic, well-executed, and easy to manage.

Why Cape Town works for UK clients

Working remotely shouldn’t feel remote.

  • Overlapping UK working hours
  • Easy communication via email, calls and video
  • Senior expertise without agency rates
  • A proven, professional process

Most clients say it feels like having an in-house designer — just based somewhere sunnier.

  • Direct collaboration — no account managers
  • Clear scope, timelines and expectations
  • Transparent, efficient process
  • Long-term relationships or one-off projects
  • Ad hoc, retainer or white label relationships

I’m in it for the long haul, supporting businesses as they grow and evolve.

About

I started working as an independent designer in the UK in 2004 as Lime Creative, making contacts that presented incredible opportunities. I relocated to Cape Town in 2018.

Raised in South Africa, I graduated from WITS Tech (now Johannesburg University), where I studied Graphic Design. I started my career working in advertising, first for Ogilvy, followed by TBWA and Young & Rubicam.

When an opportunity to work in the UK arose, I was able to make the change from advertising to design I had been looking for.

I have worked in the UK and South Africa, and for clients in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and Dubai.
