Andrew is an experienced SAP professional with a career that spans over a decade of transformation and innovation. He began his professional journey in debt recovery before pivoting to SAP in 2011, where he quickly established himself as a subject matter expert in billing during a major ECC6 implementation for a local authority.
Since then, Andrew has broadened his expertise across key functional areas including security and authorisations, finance, and his enduring passion—sales and distribution. His deep understanding of both technical and functional domains has made him a versatile leader in the SAP space.
Andrew joined the University of Leeds in 2018 as an analyst, where he quickly realised how much there was to learn. He embraced the opportunity to grow within an inspiring team, deepening his SAP knowledge and expanding his impact across the institution.
Today, he leads the SAP team at the University of Leeds, playing a central role in guiding the institution’s transition to SAP S/4HANA. His leadership is instrumental in designing solutions that not only support mission-critical business processes but also ensure the university’s systems are resilient and future-ready.
Beyond his operational role, Andrew is a passionate advocate for collaboration and knowledge sharing. He actively engages with peers across the higher education sector, contributing insights and fostering connections that strengthen the broader SAP community.
