Jim Gillies

June 25, 1969 - November 13, 2021

Our friend and colleague, Jim Gillies, passed away at home on Saturday the 13th of November after a long battle with cancer. Jim has been part of SLC for over 16 years working in many teams including FE, DSA, BCF and, for the last 6 years, the Assess Platform. Jim has had a huge influence in all the teams he's worked in, but more importantly he has left a positive lasting impression on so many people he worked with. His loss will be felt much more widely than the Assess Platform and he will be missed by many within SLC. Jim is survived by his wife Aileen and daughter Emma and our thoughts go out to them at this time.

I simply cannot imagine the feeling of loss that Jim's family must be feeling at this time. We at SLC have lost a true pillar of our community, and someone who was very much part of the 'family' at SLC too. As others have said it was obvious he cared about Aileen and Emma more than anything else in the world by the way he spoke about them both with joy and love in his eyes, and that was very much the measure of the man. A kind, thoughtful, helpful, knowledgeable gentleman who will be missed by all who knew him. Thoughts are with his family at this time. I consider myself privileged to have known and worked with him and I hope others can take at least a little solace in feeling the same.
