I have worked with Andrew at various companies I have contracted at and found him an excellent Project Manager. He is very thorough and well-organised. I would not hesitate to work with him again as he would be an asset to any project.

Rachel Brown

Andy has been great asset to our team! With strong Agile project management skills, he’s built rapport, trust and transparency with our team of designers and developers to deliver mobile and automotive application projects. He has often gone above and beyond to ensure the team is set up for success and is focused on high quality, on budget and on time delivery. He has directly contributed to the delivery of some of our biggest projects, and his honesty and pragmatism in identifying and correcting issues before they become blockers has been invaluable. It’s been a pleasure being his manager, and I wish him all the best for his future career and success.
