I am pleased to provide a recommendation for Neale McPherson with ZINK.

Neale and I worked together at Arrium for over 10 years on various business and corporate projects. His knowledge and experience in finance, strategy development, project management as well as softer skills provided a solid contribution to the projects we worked on.

Along with Neale’s undeniable talent, Neale is a true team player, and always manages to foster positive discussions and bring the best out of other employees.

Without a doubt, I would confidently recommend Neale to assist your business or team.

Project Management

I worked with Neale for over 7 years at OneSteel. Within that time, Neale reported to me in his capacity as Program Director Steel Integration for 10 months. Neale’s role consisted of managing a complex program of work to enable the 10-year steel strategy of OneSteel, providing benefits in excess of $100m. This included establishing the PMO, stakeholder management and reporting for Steering Committee and Board.

The program included more than 12 separate projects including 3 major systems projects across multiple business units. Neale’s strong management experience and business knowledge enabled him to overcome many challenges with competing projects and priorities across the business units. Neale was also required to closely manage external supplier relationships given delays on project milestones, costs and capability.

 

Neale is an experienced, professional executive that I would highly recommend.

Program Director

Neale and I worked together for over 10 years at OneSteel. For the majority of that time Neale reported through to me in a number of different senior roles. Throughout that period those roles grew dramatically during a number of restructures, Neale’s grounded knowledge in accounting & governance and many years’ experience in the financial sector enabled him to adapt throughout that change and he bought a valuable and differing insight to the manufacturing industry.

Neale has shown his ability to adapt to change whilst ensuring he always delivers be it in his day to day role, Board reporting, M&A activity or the multiple projects he has worked on. During his tenure, he acted on my behalf on a number of occasion with flawless effort. I have often used him as a sounding board for all things from people management to business decisions. Neale was a strong leader for his direct reports and was held in high esteem by both peers and senior managers.

I would highly recommend Neale as a business partner.
