Colleagues describe him as "I’ve been Neil’s colleague for 2 years and then his team lead for 1 year, and I would strongly recommend Neil. Neil worked very closely with legal, and was a trusted advisor for the strategic pursuit team. He demonstrated capacity to work on the full contract lifecycle, from proposal, to pre-sales, to post-sales, on some of our more complex UK framework agreements. In addition to his day to day, Neil was also a key contributor to some of our major initiatives, thus adding value not only to the business but also to the contract management team as a whole. He does his work with diligence, is attentive to details, and also has a great sense of humour, he is a pleasure to work with and he will be missed, I wish him all the successes he deserves." and "I had the pleasure over the past 3 years to work very closely with Neil as his team lead first and then his manager and never stopped being impressed by his level of engagement, extensive business knowlegde of the UK public sector and constant desire to develop himself. Neil is a true team player, taking pleasure in daily interactions with his peers. Such a behavior always had a positive impact on the team growth and also on the development of less senior individual contributors. As an experienced Contract Manager his involvement at each stage of the contract lifecycle, both on the pre-sales and post-signature phase, made him an expert of contractual negotiations, risk and issue management, contract optimization and he proved to be very successful in facilitating relationship with customers and providers in the times of crisis. I have a very high opinion of Neil as a professional and a human being. Greg Leveau"
