Our Employee of the Month for October Colin Scott.
Colin has had an exceptional month, completing more work items than anyone else in the development team while using just 89% of his estimated development time, with no review issues. He has also continued supporting colleagues through code reviews, guidance and support sessions.
As highlighted in his nomination, Colin's productivity, quality and teamwork make him very deserving of this recognition.
Colin taught Scott how to program when he started his first job after university. They've stayed in touch for over 20 years and have been working together again for the past three and a half years.
Colin's knowledge, experience and willingness to support others are a real asset to DDI and the wider business.
A very well-deserved award. Well done, Colin.
Colin has chosen to donate his ÂŁ1,000 prize to Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), a charity that is close to his heart. CRY is a UK charity dedicated to preventing sudden cardiac deaths in young people through heart screenings, awareness and medical research. The charity also provides vital support to families affected by sudden cardiac loss.
