Judge for The Virgin Atlantic Customer Experience and Loyalty Award

Andrew started his career as a management trainee with the John Lewis Partnership at Brent Cross. He quickly moved up through the management ranks and over the next eighteen years led a number of selling teams in different branches.

He next moved to the head office to take charge of the department stores’ customer-centric Intelligence Team. Andrew was then asked to lead on customer service for the department store division. Over the next eight years the role saw him develop JLP’s market-leading culture and attitude towards customer service and sales. That customer-driven culture is something that has now become synonymous with the John Lewis brand and during his tenure John Lewis won many awards for customer service and were frequently cited in the media as a leading customer oriented organisation.

In 2012 Andrew set up his own consultancy specialising in employee engagement and customer experience. He is also in demand internationally as a conference speaker, facilitator and chair.
