Matthew Neill

Areas of expertise

I look after owner-managed businesses in a variety of industries, ranging from manufacturing and construction to professional services and media, turning over £1m to £100m. My principal specialism is audit and assurance, but I also head up the share and business valuations team in Tunbridge Wells.

Experience

I joined Creaseys in 2006 (which merged with Evelyn Partners in November 2023), and qualified as a chartered accountant in 2010. I have worked in the audit and assurance team throughout my career and became an audit RI in 2017.

Notable achievements

I helped one of my clients to treble the price obtained for his shares in a £40m security business, by critiquing the valuation provided by the advisors to his former co-shareholders.

I supported a long-standing client with the sale of their family chemicals business to a large French group, achieving a higher-than-expected price.
