Industry leader to offer staffing and UX and UI consulting support
Atlanta, GA – March 15, 2012 – Cadence Group, an industry leader in information acquisition, organization and dissemination solutions, has expanded their web and information architecture practice areas with the addition of a user experience/user-centered design service line. They have tapped one of the area’s most recognized leaders in the UX recruiting arena to lead their efforts. Sherra Bell, a familiar face in Atlanta design and UX circles, is now driving the company’s overall creative staffing efforts. Prior to her current role, Bell spent 10 years building a successful recruiting company of her own and has been placing creative professionals around the Southeast for almost 15 years. A designer first, she is also a past president of AIGA Atlanta.
The new division serves to support and staff digital creative agencies and in-house teams tasked with making web and mobile-based information usable and visually interesting for today’s knowledge workers. Typical roles included in the service offering are: User Centered Designers, Digital Designers, Data Visualization Designers, Interaction Designer, User Experience Designers and Team Leads (UX), User Interface Designers (UI), Information Architects (IA), Content Managers (Web & Social), Usability Analysts, Design/User Research Specialists, Digital Strategist, and Account Team members.
“I am happy to have a platform from which to help customers create systems that make information portals visually appealing, usable, and accessible. While recruiting talent is the focus of my position, I am also able to flex my creative muscle as a Cadence Group project lead and designer,” shared Bell. “I believe user-centric design is an extremely powerful tool for companies that want to improve the digital experience for their customers.”
“We are thrilled to have a professional of Sherra’s caliber leading the UX team,” offered Tina Baker, President and CEO of Cadence Group. “Focusing on user-centered design and recruiting top-notch professionals is a natural extension of our continuum of information, architectural, and web development services and we are proud to be leading the industry making information and its dissemination flexible, extensible and effective.”
