Bio

It is with the greatest sadness that we announce the loss of our amazing colleague and friend Andy Cumming. On Jan 12, 2022, Andy passed away suddenly at home from natural causes. This is an incredibly sad and difficult time for his family, many at InSites Consulting, and all close to him. We are so sorry to be the bearer of this news and offer our greatest sympathy to all who are impacted by this terrible loss.

 

Hey, I’m Andy and I look after the six awesome teams that make up the Manchester office, UK. I’m a big believer that business success starts with people and I love building accounts, teams, businesses and discovering new things; you can always get better! ​

 

​Across my career so far, I’ve worked client side, looking after research and strategy teams, and I’ve set up my own business (the best learning experience ever) before joining InSites Consulting (then Join the Dots) in 2012. I’ve really played to those passions of building things and learning, I’ve helped: grow the GSK account from £450k to £3m, win the Kellogg’s and PepsiCo accounts, set up the New York and Singapore offices, and also helped improve how we undertake research internationally.​

 

​Outside of work, I love spending time with my family; my wife and I have a daughter and a son, and they keep us busy mainly with endless requests for lifts! I snowboard when I can, I run and I love watching football, I’m a season ticket holder at Everton.
