Colleagues describe him as "Derek Carter was a colleague and neighbour while working for CCA Limited on Canouan Island, with whom my wife and I developed a close relationship with his family. As a colleague, he showed an unparalleled commitment to his job. On numerous occasions, he either arrived late or left for the office just after arriving home from work, and he answered work-related calls, regardless of time, during personal time with family and friends and on days off. Derek dealt with any employment issues or matters promptly, always informing you as to where your query stood. He showed a devotion to understanding the island and work culture by finding the time to listen to what you had to say about work or island related concerns. During his short stay on Canouan, he implemented some of these ideas to help the expat community better deal with the island life, which carried on well after he had left and was greatly appreciated! Derek’s professionalism and charismatic leadership made him a well-respected colleague, and a reliable friend." and "Having known Derek for 15 years he was my natural choice for a HR partner when I set up my new firm. Derek has worked with me in a truly advisory way since day 1 providing first class advice when I required it. He painlessly implemented HR procedures within my business from the onset ensuring that be-IT was fully compliant with all legislation and to this day provides call off assistance as and when I require it. I can thoroughly recommend Derek as an informed and personable professional who adds HR rigor to a SME business. His approach was excellent."
