OUR EXPERTS

Tom Ponsonby Founder & CEO

Tom founded exSite in 2009 to meet a clear need for web and graphic design services in the commercial and political market. He now manages key projects, and is responsible for leading the senior team as well as building partnerships to improve exSite’s capacity to provide award winning services.

Prior to exSite Tom has experience leading communication projects in Ireland, the UK and the US, across multiple sectors. He studied business and political science at Trinity College Dublin, followed by Public Relations at the Irish Academy of Public Relations, before adding numerous web design courses and then a Post Graduate Dip in Advertising and Digital Communications from DIT.

To ‘relax’ he is also actively involved in The British Irish Chamber of Commerce, The Trinity Business Alumni, The Kildare Street and University Club, and Lansdowne Lawn Tennis Club.

Tom is the Office DJ (only because he owns the speakers), and he wears cycling shorts without shame.

Timothy Guiney Technical Director

Tim has a degree in eCommerce and a Post Graduate Diploma in Organisational Management and has been heavily involved in our award winning projects over the years.

He has been running our client support department for the past 3 years and has extensive experience in advising both B2B and B2C businesses in online operations and processes, as well as providing support and guidance  on a technical level.

He is highly skilled in evaluating our clients’ existing online and offline processes and requirements and building solutions that fit their business. He has a track record of creating solutions that have a good ROI and customer engagement, while being easy for our clients to integrate into their existing business processes.

Tim lives in Waterford so gets more sun than the rest of the team…

 

 

 

 

Puffin Moynihan PR & Social Media Partner

Puffin heads up Dynamics Media & Marketing, one of Ireland’s leading independent communications agencies. She and her team have over 20 years PR, marketing and social media experience with global and international brands and local companies. With media bandwidth in Ireland, the EU, UK and the US, and a naturally strategic mindset, she has been responsible for creative and impactful campaigns across a range of sectors from FMCG and hospitality, to health, corporate and B2B.

Client experience includes the Four Seasons Hotel, Johnson & Johnson, Procter & Gamble, Aveda, Killruddery Estate, and Nissan. She was also responsible for a two-year EU climate change campaign in Ireland and the UK, and devised an information programme blueprint for the EU in Belarus. Crisis Management is a speciality, and she has created robust responses to events in real time as well as comprehensive tool kits to future-proof and protect corporate reputations.

An early adopter of social media as a key business development discipline, she has always encouraged brands to embrace connecting with their consumers, emphasising transparency and integrity as a core value to deliver the best reach.

When not working, Puffin spends a lot of time trying to beat her Rubik’s Cube record of just over one minute.

Jorge Salazar Security Director

Jorge moved from Venezuela to Ireland in 2013. He worked as a Network Engineer and an IT Engineer before joining exSite, and he is excellent with both hardware and software.

Amazon Web Servivces (AWS) certified and extremely cautious and suspicious – he keeps our sites secure and servers purring.

Jorge refuses to share his Game of Thrones mug. He’s so cool he has three monitors.

Margus Mets Creative Director

Margus ensures all our design qualifies as ‘Estonian Chic’. His eye for detail and trends that are modern yet timeless, working across on and offline channels, means that he’s a busy man.

Rafal Kostrzewa Our Photographer

A good website looks amazing with the right photographs… hence Rafal is a valued member of the team. His incredible ability to take beautiful photographs comes from years of training, years of practice, and loads and loads of equipment. He’s also really nice and knows how to make even the meanest client look friendly.

“Smile!”

 

Katie Lavey Project Coordinator

Katie’s main personality traits are her gluten allergy and podcast addiction. She’s also super organised and her key role in assisting on projects has earned her a place on our senior team page.
