Nicky Hoyland, CCO of Digital Balance commented, “We are very proud of our work alongside Santander, to be recognised at this level is a huge achievement and is a credit to the hard work of our talented team.

When Digital Balance was founded in 2013, Santander was one of our first clients. As the company has grown, so has the range of products and services we have been able to offer, facilitating Santander to support over 25,000 active users across their platforms”.

Euan Hay, Digital & Innovation Specialist at Santander added, “Working with companies outside of your organisation brings its own set of challenges; trust, ways of working and communications are at the top of the list. These factors are the foundations of a strong partnership that fosters innovation and drives meaningful change.

With Digital Balance, these have come effortlessly allowing for creativity and true disruption to take the forefront for the benefit of our end-users, as should always be the case. As with many relationships, they evolve, grow and improve, this is no different between Santander and Digital Balance. I have no doubt, with our working practices, this will continue to be the case”.
