A little about Andrew
Andrew is the proud Dad of two children now at University, and lives with his wife, Barbara, near Petworth with his energetic Labrador and Cocker Spaniel.
Andrew had an unusual route into politics and wouldn't consider himself a 'Career Politician'. He spent 27 years working in business and joined Sky where he spent most of his career - eventually serving its customers as the youngest FTSE 100 Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Operating Officer. During Andrew's time at Sky, the business grew its customer base from 3 million to 30 million viewers. Andrew also served as the Chairman of Just Eat where he was awarded Non-Executive Director of the Year by The Sunday Times. It was when he was at Sky that he and his family moved to West Sussex, now around 14 years ago.
