Neil joined when our company was approaching the end of the contract period. With many feeling unsettled Neil quickly understood our operation and was able to address areas of weakness. Neil drove initiatives which significantly improved our service levels and with his leadership style supported the staff and secured their buy-in at a challenging time. Neil led the operation to a sucessful retender. As my line manager I found Neil to be very commited to my personal development, I felt well supported while he assisted my transition to a higher level of management. His deep appreciation of my role, was a great benefit to me: when situations arose, Neil made an ideal sounding board being able to challenge my thinking and push me to deliver the most creative solutions. Neil is an exceptionally strong communicator and his skills in persuasion were extrememly useful when we were meeting with our client. Neil was consistently able influence and guide them towoard the best solutions for both parties and drove the introduction of many of the new processes which significantly improved our customer's experience.
