Alastair Woodgate
Head of Design & Marketing
(He/Him)
I joined the company in 2017, initially as a contractor where I helped design the first version of the ARRAKIS App. My role has expanded a huge amount since then and I now run the design and marketing teams - where I’m ultimately responsible for all output in those areas. This includes branding, marketing campaigns, strategy, social media and product design.
My Role at Nexus Alpha
In the last few years I’ve rediscovered how happy playing the piano makes me, so I try to play for at least half an hour a day. I also love writing and I’m working on my second novel as well as a selection of short stories.
What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
I failed my driving test 3 times - the third time by driving the wrong way around a roundabout. I’m also partially colourblind.
My fun fact
Karla Cueva

My Role at Nexus Alpha
Going on long walks in search of overpriced (but good) coffee, going to the cinema and watching some classic chick flicks at home. I’ve recently got into baking as well, my 5 year old swears I make the best cupcakes – she’s not wrong.
What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
I used to play the violin and once performed at the Royal Festival Hall with the school band.
