How Andrew is building better working world
“I spent a large part of my childhood in Hokkaido and returned to the UK to attend university. I hope that the combination of my experience living in Japan and the UK, alongside my professional experience in both countries, brings value to the relationships that EY Japan builds with new and existing clients. Every day, my priority is to identify and share client goals, helping them achieve success in Japan and overseas, which will contribute to building a better working world.”
