Andy established James Hambro & Partners as a founding team member in 2009. He previously held various roles at J O Hambro Investment Management, including Finance Director and Chief Operating Officer. Before that, he worked at Sun Life and the original J O Hambro Group. Andy is also a Fellow of the Chartered Association of Certified Accountants. In 2022, Andy was named one of the PAM 50 Most Influential – the definitive list of those at the forefront of shaping private client work in the UK and Crown Dependencies. It makes sense that he’s fond of the Michael Jordan quote, “I just knew I didn’t want to be average”. Having founded JH&P, Andy feels privileged to have chosen the people he works with. He enjoys coming into the office and seeing people who are not only excellent technically but also really likeable. Andy is a family man with four children and five grandchildren, but when time allows, he watches and plays lots of sports. He also has twin Labradors that need lots of walking and is a very early-stage amateur (his words) photographer.
