General Manager – Based in Ripon (but with regular stops in Sutton-in-Craven and occasionally spotted in the Highlands)
Hometown: Sheffield born and bred, now calling Sutton-in-Craven home
If you’re looking for the steady hand on the Batchelors wheel, meet Andrew—the General Manager who somehow balances big business thinking with a love of family life, Alexa automations, and the occasional trip down memory lane via 90’s piano house.
Andrew’s comfort zone? A mixed grill big enough to warrant its own postcode or a classic KFC bucket shared with the family—unless, of course, he’s out chasing horizons in the Highlands or reminiscing about that epic two-week skiing trip in Aspen.
Petrol runs through his veins too, though his coolest moment behind the wheel wasn’t in the boardroom—it was driving a Dodge Viper V10 so jaw-dropping that a passer-by literally walked into a lamp post while admiring it. Not something you forget in a hurry.
Once an aspiring RAF pilot, Andrew’s career plans took a sharp left turn thanks to an eyesight test—but while he didn’t make it to the cockpit, he somehow found his way into sales (a profession he once swore he'd avoid). Life’s funny like that.
When he’s not running the business or keeping the tech in his house ticking over with a perfectly timed Alexa routine, Andrew is all about his people: his family, his team, and anyone who can appreciate a bit of Hothouse Flowers or the Black Eyed Peas. And if you hear 80’s or 90’s classics blasting from the office, you’ll know who’s in charge of the playlist that day.
Dream destinations? Scotland’s west coast has his heart these days, but there’s always room for another adventure.
So whether he’s steering Batchelors through the fast lane or winding down with some Alexa-powered mood lighting, Andrew’s your go-to for leadership with heart, humour, and a bit of horsepower.
