Andrew specialises in the risk field, primarily in encouraging organisations and industries, individually and as a whole, to better understand their risk.  This includes working internationally to find common approaches for the measurement of risk performance and helping organisations find innovative and effective ways to measure and visualise their risk performance.  After 25 years working in the aviation industry Andrew, like many others, is increasingly convinced that the key to a better understanding of risk is in effectively turning data into knowledge and working together across the industry to build a shared knowledge of how the system is performing.

Andrew has spent the last 10 years in the aviation risk domain most recently as Head of Safety Strategy Development and Head Risk Analysis at NATS; the UK Air traffic services provider.  Before moving to NATS in 2007, Andrew was an Air Safety Manager with British Airways where he specialised in the development of risk indicators and data fusion.  Prior to concentrating in the risk domain Andrew, who is a Chartered Engineer, was a design engineer in various technical departments at British Airways.
