Insight Executive Group is thrilled to celebrate nine years with Andrew Pyman – team mentor, group Board Member, and IE Director of Procurement and Commercial Management. His journey with us is a true testament to his dedication, team support, hard work, and the growth opportunities he has helped make available at IEG.
A Journey of Growth and Dedication
Andrew’s story with Insight began back in 2015 – a point where he had decided that a career in recruitment wasn’t for him due to the methods encouraged by larger corporate agencies. He was approached by IEG’s Co-founder, Richard Collins, to see if he would be interested in joining IEG – a new company (of just three people) that would ‘do recruitment differently’.
“Andrew’s genuine talent for inspiring those around him made him the perfect fit for IEG. His journey from falling out of love with recruitment, to enabling this business to grow from strength to strength while building many careers, is evidence that the number-crunching methods of recruitment aren’t a must to succeed. He is a pleasure to work with, and I am proud to be able to call him my colleague and friend for so many years.”

Free from the constraints of rigid KPI targets he’d faced in previous roles, Andrew thrived. He quickly grew as a consultant and manager, building a high-performing team that doubled its annual revenue and played a pivotal role in allowing our Co-founders, Richard and Nick, to focus on other critical areas of the business. Andrew’s rise through the ranks was remarkable, progressing from consultant to Associate Director and, more recently, to Director of Procurement and Commercial Management with a team of almost 30.
A Leader Who Inspires
Known affectionately in the office as “PY” (but never “Andy”), his infectious enthusiasm and upbeat, determined attitude have made him an integral part of the IEG family. He’s excelled in his professional role while being a driving force in keeping team morale high – he is often the first person to offer support when team members need it.
As Director of our Procurement and Commercial Management team, Andrew leads the charge for permanent and interim assignments. With almost twenty years of experience in procurement, his expertise and guidance continue to be invaluable to our team, providing ongoing training and expert advice for every consultant who joins us.
Beyond the Office
Andrew is a devoted family man, balancing his professional life with the joys of being a father to three children and one “fur baby.” He’s also a passionate supporter of Everton FC and has a love for challenging himself, and has been known to tackle 10ks, grueling Tough Mudder events, and most recently, The London Marathon, raising tonnes of cash for charities in the process too.
Here’s to Many More Years
Andrew’s nine-year journey at Insight Executive Group is a shining example of what can be achieved through hard work, commitment, team support, and a brilliant attitude. We couldn’t be prouder to have him on our team and look forward to many more years of success and leadership together.
Congratulations, PY! We’re incredibly grateful for your dedication, support, and brilliant sense of humour and we can’t wait to see what giddy heights your leadership will steer us toward next!
