01. about

Starting out on small-scale productions in the mid 90’s, Andrew has worked his way up through the industry from driver / runner to overlay / production / event / site & senior site manager. He has worked on some of the largest international concerts in South Africa, from Post Malone to The Pixies and Travis Scott to the Cure to name a few along with Future in Mozambique, Toni Braxton & Babyface in Zimbabwe and J Cole in Nigeria.

In the process he has developed a wide skillset that takes in every single aspect of event production and management from stage and site, to fit out and construction through to overlay, project and production management. Andrew is an extremely diligent, high energy being that accomplishes tasks with ease that others deem impossible, works well with others or on his own, manages large teams of people efficiently, works the long hours when necessary and never shies away from tight schedules and deadlines. To this day he hasn’t come across a challenge or a problem on an event that he could not solve extremely quickly and efficiently with ease.

I worked with Andrew on a mega project in KSA. I can’t define his role, as there was never a task too big or too small for him to take on. He is fastidious and an amazing problem solver. I wouldn’t hesitate to bring him on any project in the future. Not just a good person to know, but a great member of any team!

Senior Overlay Manager
Al Bayt Stadium FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022

Andrew is the quintessential Site Manager. Endlessly resourceful, inventive, creative, and a highly proactive chief of staff he is quick to assess, quantify, strategize, and deploy both personnel and equipment. Effusive, confident, and organised, he will make things happen that other people think are impossible, and when all else fails his sense of humour can bring everyone back down to earth with a smile.

One of the few people who knows exactly how to get the job done. Very professional, in terms of keeping project delivery up to date, very well communicated and informative in all aspects.

Andrew is the most diligent site manager I have ever worked with! His work ethics and knowledge are impeccable & gets along with absolutely everyone on site and his presence is always felt when he’s on a big gig. I could not recommend anyone higher than Andrew when it comes to event and site management.
