Consultant and strategist helping organizations make smarter decisions about cost, value and change. Co-author of 'Smarter Spending' (Pearson, 2026).
Neil helps organizations understand and improve the way they use their resources. Over more than a decade with ERA, he has supported teams and clients across industries to deliver sustainable savings, build supplier partnerships and strengthen long-term performance.
His work focuses on the decisions, habits and behaviors that determine whether spending creates waste or value.
Neil is also the co-author of Smarter Spending (Pearson, 2026), which distils this experience into a practical philosophy for making smarter choices about cost and value.
Drawing on his experience across ERA’s global network, Neil combines analytical discipline with curiosity about how organizations really work. He has experience of seeing hundreds of projects across manufacturing, professional services, logistics, healthcare and technology, that help clients find efficiency without compromise. His work often centers on the behavioural drivers of cost: how assumptions, legacy processes and habits can shape the way organizations spend.Through this approach, Neil helps leadership teams see the bigger picture behind their data, connecting operational decisions to culture, strategy and long-term outcomes. The principles captured in Smarter Spending reflect that perspective: they describe how people and systems behave, not just how budgets are managed. Although written for business costs, the principles are a universal framework for making smarter decisions wherever resources are limited and impact matters.
