Digital Proposal · Prepared for Chesterfield

A Stronger Digital Future for Chesterfield.

A strategic proposal to modernise Chesterfield's digital presence, showcase its track record, strengthen search visibility, and create a platform that inspires the next generation of talent.

Prepared by Prox Digital Agency · October 2026

01 — Our understanding

Built for reputation, not just leads.

Chesterfield's deals come through relationships. This project is about making sure the website matches the reputation those relationships rest on.

01

Corporate identity

Present a modern, professional corporate identity online that matches the scale of the work.

02

Track record

Showcase projects, capabilities, leadership and company credentials in one clear place.

03

Credibility

Maintain and reinforce the business credibility Chesterfield has built since 2006.

04

Talent appeal

Create a website that resonates with future employees and the next generation of talent.

05

Discoverability

Improve how Chesterfield is found across Google and AI-powered search tools.

Lead generation is not the primary driver. Credibility, presentation, talent appeal and digital visibility are central to this project.

02 — Digital audit insights

What the audit found.

Findings as reported in Prox's October 2026 digital audit — not independently re-measured live. Each one links to how this project responds.

Website performance

Audit finding

32/100

Google mobile performance score (PageSpeed)

Evidence
The audit reported a mobile score of 32/100, with the main image taking around 36 seconds to load on mobile.
Why it matters
Brokers, partners and candidates often check the site on a phone. A slow page is abandoned before the story is told.
How we address it
A rebuilt, image-optimised site with modern performance foundations, tested against Core Web Vitals before launch.

Search visibility

Audit finding

6

Google keyword rankings — all branded

Evidence
Chesterfield ranked for six searches, each one someone typing “Chesterfield”. None for industrial developer or build-to-suit searches.
Why it matters
People who don’t already know the name — site selectors, landowners, graduates — currently don’t find Chesterfield.
How we address it
Technical SEO foundations in the redesign, followed by keyword mapping and ongoing optimisation in the visibility programme.

AI search

Audit finding

0

Mentions across AI search tools checked, October 2026

Evidence
No mentions across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Google AI Overviews for the queries checked.
Why it matters
Shortlists are increasingly built by asking AI tools for names. Firms absent from those answers are absent from the list.
How we address it
Structured company and project information, schema, and answer-oriented content designed to be understood and cited.

Brand presentation

Audit finding

—

Project information & presentation

Evidence
A ~100-word homepage on an off-the-shelf template, no leadership, and buildings still listed as “Under Construction – Delivery Summer 2023”.
Why it matters
For most people the website is the first impression. Outdated details create doubt during diligence and recruitment.
How we address it
A full portfolio with reusable project templates, leadership profiles, a Careers section and an easy-to-maintain CMS.
