About this listen
Dyslexia made traditional learning difficult, but time spent in his grandfather's workshop and a single school project sparked a lifelong passion for engineering. Neill's path began with an NC in Mechanical Engineering at North Glasgow College, followed by his HNC and HND. This was all after a series of early rejections that could have stopped him in his tracks.
Neill went on to earn a cadetship with Zodiac Maritime, spending six months at sea before joining Expedite and later Babcock International.
Today, at SSE Renewables, Neill works on wind and solar projects that power communities and drive the clean energy transition.
Together, Josh and Neill explore the importance of resilience, continuous learning, and doing what you love even when the route isn't straightforward. This is a story for anyone who's ever been told "no" but kept going anyway.
