What my peers have to say
"I had the privilege of working with Derek while employed at
BSkyB. I found Derek to be highly skilled technically with a
passion for his work, great attention to detail and a highly
analytical mind. He is an intelligent chap with great people skills
and sense of humour. It was a pleasure to work with Derek and I
highly commend him to any future employer." - Steve Fenton
"I was lucky enough to work with Derek for around 2 years and
during this time I found him to be a very clever, strategic
individual who could easily focus towards a myriad of issues and
potential solutions by applying excellence in analysis, planning
and strategy. If I had to sum Derek up in 5 words they would be
Strategic, Analytical, Organised, Quality Focused and Value Add
(ok, that's technically 7 words but they are all true) "- Amanda
Kelly
"I had the very good fortune to work with Derek over a three year
period at SkyIQ where he played a major part in ensuring myself
and the other departmental managers were focussed, and aligned
to, the more significant and valuable asks from the business. His
natural inquisitorial style ensured that he was able to prioritise
projects fully appraised on the drivers behind the requests and pull
the threads together where a more cohesive approach would be
beneficial. Innate creativity coupled with sound logical thinking
meant Derek was often used as a sounding board by colleagues" -
