Magento Consultant, Leeds

Magento Developer in Leeds

Senior Magento consultant with 15+ years building, stabilising and migrating Magento stores. I work directly with businesses across Leeds and West Yorkshire.

I've worked with Magento since its early days and WordPress since 2009. Certified Magento developer, former Head of Development and Technical Director across several agencies. These days I work directly with the business, not through a layer of account managers and project managers.

If you run a Magento store in Leeds and something isn't right, you talk to me. The person who actually does the work.

Supporting Magento Stores Across Leeds and West Yorkshire

Leeds has one of the strongest retail and ecommerce scenes outside London, alongside a deep base of B2B and professional services. A lot of those businesses are running Magento stores that started simple and grew complicated over the years.

I help retailers, wholesalers and B2B operations across Leeds, Wakefield, Bradford and the wider city region keep those stores fast, stable and earning, whether you sell to consumers, trade, or both.

Magento Experience You Can Rely On

I started building Magento stores when the platform was still finding its feet. Since then I've run Magento development teams and looked after large installations handling real volume and real money.

That means I've seen most of what can go wrong, and I know what's worth fixing now, what can wait, and what's a waste of your money. You get a straight answer, not a quote for the biggest possible job.

Common Magento Problems I'm Called In To Fix

These are the issues that usually start a conversation.

Slow Storefront

Pages that crawl, especially on category and checkout. Lost sales and a Google ranking that suffers for it. Usually fixable without a rebuild.

Checkout Drop-Off

Customers abandoning at payment, errors on busy days, or a checkout that breaks after an update. The expensive moment to get wrong.

Fragile Extensions

Third-party modules that clash, break on upgrade, or quietly introduce security holes. Common on stores that have been added to for years.

Stalled Upgrades

An upgrade that went wrong and left you stuck on an old version. I untangle these and get you current without taking the store down.

Security and PCI Gaps

Patches not applied, payment integrations misconfigured, or a PCI audit you're worried about. Worth sorting before it becomes a problem.

Messy Handovers

A previous developer left, with no documentation and custom code nobody understands. I work out what's there and make it maintainable again.

Support and Stabilisation for Leeds Magento Stores

Not every store needs rebuilding. Most need a senior pair of eyes to find the real issues, put them in order, and fix them properly rather than patching over them.

I offer ongoing Magento support on a basis that suits you, from the occasional bit of help through to regular maintenance. No retainer you don't need, no junior cutting their teeth on your live store.

When It's Time to Move Beyond Magento

Magento doesn't have to be ripped out the moment something newer comes along. For plenty of businesses it still does the job, it just needs proper care.

But there's a point where the cost of hosting, maintenance and developers stops making sense for the size of the store. If you're near that point, I'll show you what moving to a lighter, cheaper setup would actually involve, and I'll tell you honestly if you're better off staying put.

Why Work With a Consultant, Not an Agency

A different model for businesses that value directness and accountability.

One Senior Consultant

You work with me directly. No junior developers learning on your project, no game of telephone through an account manager.

Direct Communication

Questions get answered by the person doing the work. Nothing gets lost between teams, because there's only one of me.

Honest Recommendations

I'll tell you when Magento is the right choice and when it isn't. My job is to advise you well, not to sell you the biggest project.

Accountability

When something goes wrong there's no finger-pointing between departments. I take responsibility and I sort it.
