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. She 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.
