Who is Ruth Brown?

Ruth is currently a Senior Design Strategist at ANZ, Aotearoa New Zealand’s largest bank. The bank is so large that it employs a fifth of all people who work in finance and holds roughly a third of the country’s home loans on its books.

Before joining ANZ, Ruth was the General Manager of Design Research at Xero, makers of beautiful online accounting software, and arguably New Zealand’s most successful product company, with nearly 3 million subscribers and revenues of over $600M US.

Ruth also invested 8 years at Trade Me, New Zealand’s equivalent of eBay, where she was the Head of User Experience, and later the Head of People Research.
