The Master

  
Andy Miles

Andy was admitted to the Company as a Freeman in 2018, progressing to Liveryman in July 2019. However,  this was not Andy's first experience of the Livery movement, already being a Freeman of the City of London and a Liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Carmen since 2016.

Within WCoMC, he progressed to become a Court Assistant as well as being involved in the Membership Committee, becoming Chair of that Committee (2022-24) and helping to set up the Company’s involvement with the Livery Climate Action Group.  Andy has also been a member of the ProBono Committee and carried out several probono assignments. He is an ex officio Trustee of the Company’s Charitable Fund.

His career started in trains with British Rail Engineering in Derby at the locomotive works, progressing into other areas within Transport and Automotive Engineering. Andy then served in the Police spending time in the Roads Policing Division. He returned to transport after an injury on duty. This was his introduction to the world of change management, business turnarounds and staff development.

Andy with his wife Sarah, also a member of the Company of Carmen, set up their Consulting business specialising in the Transport Industry in 2015. Since then, their business has grown across the UK and into Europe. Their clients range from new start up businesses, those with only a few trucks or buses, to global brands with thousands of vehicles. This has led to visiting all sorts of interesting places and events from quarries in Carlisle to daffodil bulbs in Penzance and white goods in Inverness, back to Penzance for "Pole Dancing" buses!

In his spare time Andy takes a keen interest in wine, having taken the renowned WSET level 1 and 2 courses with Sarah, travelled on wine tours both with the Company and others to a variety of vineyards. He is a member of the National Trust and enjoys country walks, steam trains and rugby.
