Andy, who will lead GLASS & BOW LTD’s technology Directorate, brings with him more than 20 years of experience in technology leadership, digital transformation, and innovation across the Fintech and Insurtech sectors. His impressive track record includes 23 years at Confused.com, where he rose through the ranks from Software Engineer to CTO, driving major technological advancements along the way.

It’s a truly dedicated team, a trusted partner, and they’re doing lots of innovative, exciting work for the UK insurance community.
