We're thrilled to name Kevin Dowley as our Employee of the Month for June.

Kevin’s exceptional performance and dedication to his work have made him stand out among his colleagues, and his contributions have greatly benefited the entire team.

One of Kevin’s most notable strengths is his ability to work effectively with individuals and teams. Whether collaborating on a project or offering support to his co-workers, Kevin consistently demonstrates his exceptional interpersonal skills. He is adept at understanding the needs of his colleagues and finding ways to contribute effectively to the team’s success.

Another great aspect of Kevin’s work ethic is his willingness to share responsibilities and acknowledge his teammates’ accomplishments. He consistently recognises and appreciates the efforts of his colleagues, which fosters a culture of teamwork and collaboration.

Moreover, Kevin’s commitment to meeting high standards and objectives is truly commendable. He not only understands the goals set by the company but also works tirelessly to achieve them. Kevin consistently goes the extra mile to ensure that the team’s objectives are met and that the work produced reflects the company’s high standards.

I’ve never come across an individual who can push and achieve like Kevin has in Chelmsford. He has made me really proud, takes instructions very well communicates accordingly. If he is ever unsure he always comes to ask for a second opinion. It has been a real pleasure to work alongside him.

How did your journey at Bluestones One begin and what has it been like since?I joined the business in February 2020 and was really excited with my role and new opportunity to develop. Unfortunately, I was grounded slightly by the pandemic. This then presented the business and me with lots of obstacles which we had never experienced but with the support from the internal team and from our partner company, Bluestones Investment Group (BIG), we overcame these. Whilst many businesses have failed to survive, Installations continued to develop and grow its customer base. The next few years may present many challenges, but I am excited to drive the business forward in the coming years. What do you enjoy about working in this industry?I believe you must be a self-motivator and be ready to tackle daily challenges. Each day presents itself with new challenges, and whilst this can be difficult, you get a sense of achievement when you deliver for the customer. One thing that really excites me is the opportunity to see lots of the UK whilst on client and site meetings. We have a fantastic internal support team who are young and ambitious, and this allows us to develop.
