Andy Poulter

Managing Partner

Transformation director and project manager


Andy is a proven transformation director who has designed and led delivery of complex change programmes for global organisations for more than 20 years.


He is an expert in facilitating, sequencing and structuring complex change programmes using both agile and traditional project management techniques. A long-standing associate of April, he joined as Managing Partner in 2021 at a time when it was strengthening its focus on the ‘how’ of implementation.

 

Andy graduated with a BSc in maths, operational research, statistics and economics from the University of Warwick, where he took on his first leadership role as President of the Student Union. He joined Whitbread as a graduate trainee and enjoyed project management and programme director roles in a range of sectors before biting the bullet and launching his own business in 2012.


A Prince 2 Practitioner, expert in waterfall and agile methods and experienced workshop facilitator, Andy won't let strategy sit on the shelf. He has built up a series of April playbooks to help clients develop agile strategy and accelerate through the delivery cycle, and is known for his motivating, can-do attitude.

 

He lives in Hertfordshire with his wife and children, where he has devoted many hours to coaching junior football squads. He loves to travel, particularly to Spain, and enjoys photography, cooking and travelling in his new campervan.
