Our Team
Andrew operated at a strategic level in London’s Olympic and Paralympic project for ten years, from the bid in 2003, through the Games and into the dissolution stages. He has a unique knowledge of the demands and requirements for security at major international events, from initial strategic planning, risk approach and budget requirements to operational delivery.
He is an excellent negotiator and works tirelessly to integrate security into wider planning. He produced the Organising Committee’s security strategy and Concept of Operations and oversaw their implementation. Andrew was listed as one of the most influential people in global security in 2012/3.
