Hi, I'm Andy. 

For the past 15 years, I've been building digital products and leading high-performing Product teams across a range of industries, ranging from Fintech to Music and Publishing.

Between charting the unpredictable waters of venture-backed startups and re-imagining and scaling products for established corporates, I've learnt many important (often painful) lessons, and gained invaluable firsthand experiences along the way.

I'm passionate about helping others to quickly grasp - and, most importantly, APPLY - the fundamental principles and mindsets that are required for success in Product Management.

The fundamentals are so often missed or glossed over in the rush to just fill in a template, implement a tactic, or rattle through the curriculum of a 2-day "Scrum Product Owner" certification. But that is exactly what I believe is at the root cause of so much of the waste, frustration and failure to deliver value to customers (and, in return, to the businesses that have been created to serve them).

Whether you're considering a career in this space or are already building and launching digital products (either in Product, an adjacent discipline, or as a business founder or leader), I'd love to connect and see if there's a way that I can help you navigate your journey, impart some of the lessons I've learnt, and enable you to avoid some of the most common and costly minefields.

People work with me because they:

  • Want to rapidly accelerate their impact as Product Managers.
  • Want to develop greater confidence and conviction in their Product decision-making.
  • Need help to make better strategic decisions and execute more effectively.
  • Are overwhelmed by various product development processes and methodologies and need a trusted guide.
  • Have shipped a lot of features, but their products are still not commercially successful.
  • Need to build and/or lead a Product Management team or function but don't know how.

“Andy mentored me during my first Product role, while I was completing my MBA. He combines deep Product knowledge and experience with a calm, thoughtful style, and things that really hadn't made 'sense' before suddenly did.

In short, JUMP at the opportunity to have him coach you!”

"Andy is a product and business strategy guru, and one of the most intelligent and thoughtful people I have ever worked with. In critical, high-stakes, high-pressure deliverables - including a fundraising and 5-year strategy project - Andy was amazing throughout; getting stuck in with the heavy-lifting, able to manage all stakeholder relationships and nurture a loyal and talented team.

If you're looking for senior Product talent, Andy is one of the best in the business.."
