About Neil
Hello, I’m Neil – a qualified Chartered Accountant (ACA) and experienced finance leader with over 20 years’ experience helping businesses grow, scale, and succeed. I’ve held senior roles including CFO, Finance Director, and Consultant across a wide range of organisations – from fast-paced start-ups and scale-ups to global corporations like AIG.
My career has taken me across the UK, Latin America, the US and Europe, where I’ve worked closely with CEOs and senior teams to deliver strategic financial leadership. I’ve led companies through major funding rounds, built finance teams from the ground up, implemented robust systems, and played a hands-on role in shaping business strategy.
As a Fractional CFO, I specialise in helping ambitious businesses prepare for investment, streamline their operations, and build scalable financial models. Whether it’s developing cash flow forecasts, improving business intelligence, or supporting Series A and B fundraising, I bring a calm, practical and results-focused approach.
Beyond the technical expertise, I have a genuine passion for mentoring and sharing knowledge. I understand that finance can feel complex or intimidating – especially for non-finance professionals. My teaching style is friendly, clear, and tailored to your needs, helping you feel confident and capable when it comes to understanding your numbers and making informed decisions.
Whether you're a student wanting to bridge the gap between theory and real-world practice, a business owner seeking strategic financial insight, or a finance professional looking to sharpen your skills – I bring global experience, commercial acumen, and a passion for teaching to every lesson.

My lessons are tailored to your specific goals and experience level – whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your financial knowledge. I take a practical, hands-on approach that focuses on real-world application rather than just theory. We can cover a wide range of topics including:
-Start-up and scale-up finance
-Fundraising strategy and investor readiness
-Financial modelling, forecasting, and cash flow planning
-Building effective finance systems and processes
-Financial planning & analysis (FP&A)
-Cost control and profit optimisation
-Strategic planning and share valuation maximisation
Whether you're a founder preparing for a funding round, a professional stepping into a finance leadership role, or a student wanting to gain insight into how finance really works inside a business, I can help you build the skills and confidence to succeed.
Lessons can be delivered online or in person (depending on location), and structured as one-off sessions, ongoing mentoring, or project-based support – whatever suits you best.
