About Neil

Neil loves two things about his job: technology and his team. As CEO of Shift, he gets to spend time with both, all day, every day.

With over a decade of experience as a leader in the Redbrick portfolio, Neil has developed a passion for building software businesses (and really awesome teams). He scaled Rebase, a browser technology business, into a platform with over 3 million monthly worldwide users before taking the helm at Shift. At Shift, Neil is guiding the strategic direction of the world’s most customizable browser, charting a course where no other browser has gone before.

Outside of work, you’ll find Neil out on the squash court practicing his skills and spending time with his wife Maira and four children.
