Nick Sexton

UX/UI Manager
Sam Smith

Head of UX/UI Design

Join Nick Sexton and Sam Smith from the Jaguar Land Rover design team, for a conversation about how thoughtful, software-led design is redefining the modern driving experience. From reimagining the cockpit to meeting evolving driver expectations, Nick and Sam will share how JLR is building intuitive, elegant digital systems that bring modern luxury to life behind the wheel.

Nick Sexton

UX/UI Manager

Nick is a digital design leader focussed on creating sophisticated experiences which are elegant in appearance but intuitive and enjoyable to use. Having worked across a number of digital platforms including commerce, websites, apps and interactive retail, he now leads the design of the digital experiences on some of the most sought after vehicles in the world.
Sam Smith

Head of UX/UI Design

Sam has spent over 2 decades working at the intersection of digital and physical product experience. With a background in UX and interaction design working on products for big brands (Dyson, Google) and innovation-focused companies (Yoto, Potato London) he is currently Head of UX/UI at Jaguar Land Rover, working with his team to define how Modern Luxury and Digital meet in the automotive space.

01
Designing Inside the Machine

From ambient lighting to infotainment controls, every interaction in a vehicle now carries UX weight. Nick and Sam will unpack the unique challenges of designing for a moving, safety-critical environment, and how the role of interface design is expanding within the cabin.
02
From Switches to Software

The cockpit has changed. As physical buttons give way to screens and gestures, they will share how design teams at JLR are adapting to new user expectations, bringing mobile-level polish and responsiveness to an entirely different context.
03
Software-First, Experience-Driven

Cars today are defined by software as much as they are by engineering. Nick and Sam will explore how JLR is pivoting to a software-first design model, shaping every digital touchpoint to deliver personalization, elegance, and the “modern luxury” standard the brand is known for.
