Lynden’s Bio goes here.

Justin Taylor

I joined Sellerdeck in 2017 after 10 years as an E-commerce Manager running multi-channel online retail stores. It’s this experience which led me to join Sellerdeck. As the E-commerce Partnership Manager, my focus is on the success of our customers. I work with the teams at Sellerdeck to pull-together the best that we can offer, which has a strategic and positive impact on our customers.

Outside of work, I love to travel and have a large extended family dotted around the globe.

I joined Sellerdeck in 2009, before the iPad even existed, and it was fascinating to be involved in an industry that was going through world changing events. Prior to Sellerdeck I completed an apprenticeship in Civil Engineering, where I was self-taught on AutoCAD to design structural drawings and 3d models.

After eight years in the company and towards the end of 2016, I wanted more perspective and exposure from other businesses, so I left to join a digital marketing agency who focused on technical SEO.

But I couldn’t stay away and in August of 2017 I was given the opportunity and privilege of being Sellerdeck’s CEO.

The company and its employees all share a set of strong values which is evident with every person you engage with. This is what I most admire of Sellerdeck and the people within the business.

Outside of work, my life revolves around the people I love and playing or watching as much football as I can.

Why Choose Sellerdeck?

In an online world filled with an abundance of E-commerce companies, marketing agencies and one-stop solutions, the big question is: Who do you choose?

Well, we here at Sellerdeck like to think that we can be the perfect fit for your company. Why? Because we’ve been doing it since 1996. Sellerdeck almost single handedly changed the face of E-Commerce in the UK with our easy to use Desktop E-Commerce Solution. Every business has to evolve and we’re no different. A name change, a re-branding and a lot of code later and here we are. Not only can we design, build, host and market your e-commerce business, we can work closely with you to become your e-commerce partner.

Just look at the growth of a site like Clubhouse Golf, breaking through a closed golf market to see how partnership has helped them.

Don’t wait, come have a chat with us. Even if you end up feeling that we’re not the provider for you, we’d love to hear from you, would love to chat to you and would love to get you started on the road to selling more online.

Claire Lupton

I have worked in Marketing and Communications for over 15 years and I could not imagine working in another job!

I’ve worked in lots of different industries and in recent years have specialised in digital marketing for technology and website companies. Alongside heading up the Ignite digital marketing team, I also manage the marketing for Sellerdeck. The best part of my job at Sellerdeck is working with the customers to help them create and achieve their marketing objectives. I work with a great team and all marketing projects start with a team brainstorm over a cup of tea, we allocate the different tasks, ranging from email marketing, social media, blogging, advertising and offline campaigns to the relevant person. I love the variety where every day is different.

My special object is Hugo (hedgehogs are my favorite animal), he was a gift a long time ago from my parents and he goes everywhere (within reason) with me.

Govindaraj Poosamani

Having worked in Web and Graphic design for 9 years, I am now a Senior User Interface Designer at Sellerdeck, working on both the design and development of Sellerdeck Cloud and Desktop Projects.

What I love about working at Sellerdeck is that I get to use my core skills as a developer and designer every day and for me great design is simple, pragmatic and efficient.

When I’m not working I love spending time with my family and chilling out.

Zsolt Rethy

When I graduated in 1999 I was already working as a developer for a German-Hungarian company developing automation software for warehouses.

I joined Sellerdeck in 2000 as a home-based developer, and in 2004 I completed a PhD in engineering. Since joining I have been in various roles but most of the time I have been doing C++ and Perl coding. My area of specialization is online payment systems.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family.

Krithika Chandrasekaran

Having worked in customer service for several years, I joined Sellerdeck in 2004 as a Customer Service Executive. I’ve had varied roles at Sellerdeck and I’m now the QA Manager. The change in roles has given me the opportunity to learn and develop both professionally and personally.

What I enjoy most about working at Sellerdeck is being able to work with the talented, wonderful people throughout my 12 years. The comfort I feel in communicating and reaching out to anyone, that the geographical distance doesn’t seem to be an impediment most of the time!

I am a die hard foodie and an avid food blogger and reviewer, which combines my love of food, photography and social media! I’ve also just discovered a passion for making quilled and silk-thread jewellery.

Jawahar Jeyeraman

I started my career in Information Technology after completing my Engineering Degree in Computer Science in the year 2004 from Manonmaniam Sundaranar University.

I joined Sellerdeck in 2010 as a Senior Developer working on Sellerdeck Desktop. Today, as a Cloud Delivery Lead, I am responsible for various development, migration & deployment activities of cloud projects and resourcing. Sellerdeck has given me the opportunity to work with technology experts and gives me the space to grow and achieve my goals.

I enjoy spending time with my family, my daughter adds more joy to my life and I try to spend as much time as I can with her. I also enjoy programming, learning and trying new technologies and ideas. I love listening to music and reading biographies of the rich and famous.

Bruce Townsend

Before joining Sellerdeck, I worked as an entomologist at the Natural History Museum in London, pursuing a long-held interest in wildlife. A few years in the voluntary sector followed, including 3 years managing communications for an international HIV/AIDS charity.

After joining Sellerdeck in 2000 I specialised in online marketing and search engine optimisation and then moved to product management in late 2008. I really enjoy the friendly team atmosphere at Sellerdeck.

Outside of work I enjoy being outdoors, taking photographs or watching TV with my feet up and spending time with my wife, 3 daughters and 5 grandchildren.

Karsten Panning

After completing a HND in Information Technology and Design at Brunel University, I went on to work at Surrey County Council, where I was the go-to IT person for all 84 councillors and Senior Directors.

I’ve been at Sellerdeck for just over a year in the Technical Support team as an Analyst for the Desktop Applications team. I thoroughly enjoy my role as I enjoy dealing with customers, helping to resolve their issues and I work with a great team!

In my spare time I enjoy cycling and going on long walks. I also enjoy fly fishing, particularly for trout and salmon. My biggest Salmon so far has been a 25lb chinook salmon which I caught in Vancouver Island in Canada.

David Dennington

I’ve been working at Sellerdeck for the last two years in the Sales department. My role has developed from a Junior Sales Executive to dealing with clients on a more regular basis and helping them to grow their online presence.

The most interesting element of the job has been watching one of the fastest growing industries in history grow even further. My favorite thing about Sellerdeck is the collaboration between departments, helping to solve problems, deliver projects and improve the business. Everyone here is always willing to help each other out!

Outside of work I enjoy playing tennis, producing/playing music and consuming lasagne!

Hugh Gibson

After getting a 1st Class Honours degree in Computer Science at ANU (Canberra) I worked for various companies in the UK. I started working with both hardware and software, but eventually turned to software and have been developing applications for Windows since version 2. I’ve been involved with Sellerdeck from the very early days; took a break for a while but returned in 2011.

I’ve been Chief Technical Officer since 2012. I enjoy taking the long view on projects, but also love coding. Making things faster is particularly satisfying.

I currently telework at Sellerdeck, so I get to walk in the Lake District at weekends as I live close by.

Steve Wardell

I have a degree in Information Systems and Computer Science. Before joining the Sellerdeck family, I worked in Supply Chain systems for various companies in different management and client facing roles.

I’ve worked for Sellerdeck since 2005 as Services Manager, responsible for our hosting and payments services. I also play a role in our various client projects and internal systems projects.

In my spare time, I am a keen photographer and GT sports car racing enthusiast. I ride a mountain bike, trying not to get myself killed. I’m also a keen amateur weather forecaster and astronomer.

I’m married with four kids, 2 boys and 2 girls, who happily take up the rest of my time.
