Causier won the English Amateur Billiards title in 1992, 1993, and 1995;[3] and the UK Championship in 2000 and 2001 (following which no UK championship was held from 2002 to 2014).[4]

In 2012, the IBSF World Billiards Championship was merged with the former professional championship under the name World Billiards Championship, and tournaments were held in both points and timed format. Causier won the 2013 150-up ("short format") title, and was runner-up in the timed ("long") format. He went on to win the 2015, 2016, 2017 short titles and the long format titles in 2015 and 2017.

Causier won four trophies in the 2018/19 season, despite not playing in all of the circuit's events, including winning the UK Open and the World Matchplay title.[5]

His job was managing The Normanby pub in Middlesbrough from about 2011 to 2018, and he only played billiards part-time.[6][7][8]
