There followed further chairman, CEO and NED positions at small companies, then global corporations.He went on to become a respected leader in executive search, mentoring and career guidance in the UK, EU, USA, Middle East and Asia Pacific, helping a generation of leaders navigate their careers. He has been instrumental in shaping many boardrooms, from start-ups to quoted companies. Assignments include Global Head of Digital for the world’s largest bank and Heads of Sales for North America and Asia Pacific for the largest communications network provider. Succession planning for family, private and private equity-owned companies is a speciality. Andrew teaches at world-class business schools, and he is also a speaker on subjects such as leadership, talent management and career management. Outside the business arena, he has enjoyed a successful motor-racing career (Historic Formula 1). He is also a board member of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and the author of 'Smart Moves' (Penguin, 1990) and 'Your Career Satnav...Switch It On!' (The Book Guild, February 2022).For his books, Andrew has drawn on expertise gained over a lifetime of boardroom experience, as well as the sharp end of executive search and career management. He began writing 'Your Career Satnav…Switch It On!' when digital was already disrupting the workplace.

He is dismayed by the abysmal careers coaching in schools, and by the business-school graduates who mistakenly think a stint at a consulting firm will fast-track them to the C-suite, while others are encouraged to head for the dubious ‘safety’ of law and accountancy. Moreover, he cautions that China and India’s economic and educational growth have created further competition for senior roles, and he offers key advice to those with their eyes on a board-level position. Meanwhile, final-salary pensions have all but gone – given current lifespan projections, we need to rethink retirement and see it as our next job.
