I worked with Andrew to evaluate the potential for a Management Buyour at Pivotal Games. He has a great understanding of the industry and its commercial possibilities.

I have worked with Andrew over the best part of a year; during this time, he has proved himself reliable, business orientated and competent in all aspects of his job. He has shown initiative and tenacity when the job has required it. I would be more than happy to work with Andrew again.

Andy has extensive financial and business skills, an outgoing and helpful personality, and an exacting eye to detail. I recommend Andy very highly.

I have known Andrew for the last 6 months and he has bought financial clarity to a number of outstanding conversations. An inspirational individual with an ability to cut through the unnecessary facts to get to the heart of the matter. I look forward to working with Andrew in the future. Also has a penchant for good food and beer. Perfect !

Andrew is a genuinely big player in the world of corporate finance with vital knowledge for start-ups on how to attract essential capital and regional government funding.

Andrew has given me some great advice helping to get the figures up together for our business and enabling us to be better prepared for future growth. We're now able to plan more effectively and things are looking rosie.

I have been working with Andrew for the last six months having known him for six months prior to that. Andrew’s drive and enthusiasm for business is unsurpassed in my experience. He has the tremendous asset of always being able to see an upside to any potential issue and will help drive you forward to tackle problems and opportunities with equal vigour. He is a simplifier not a complicator – another great asset to have in your business. If you want something done, ask Andrew and he’ll help you get there. Oh, and in addition to the above, the greatest asset of all in my opinion – to couple hard work and expertise with a fantastic sense of humour. I’d recommend Andrew unreservedly.

I've known Andrew for just over 6 months. In this time I've found him to be extremely impressive in his knowledge of business development for startups and in particular tech companies. I look forward to meeting and speaking with him as he always generates ideas, energy and momentum. He's completely different to most Finance & Commercial Directors I've ever met as he most often talks about ideas for doing things as opposed to reasons for not doing things.

I have known Andrew for a little while now and have been very impressed with his approach - to both the management of business finance and business development.
His experience of corporate level finance and that of the small business has given him an incredible breadth and depth of knowledge when it comes to all things money which, when coupled with an ability to keep things simple and sensible has resulted in the ability to help, support and ADD VALUE to business in a wide variety of ways.
He has a no-nonsense attitude and isn't afraid to 'tell it like it is' - a skill tempered with empathy and delivered in a way that helps people to understand what is required to move forward - something that he supports all the way.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Andrew Harwood to any and all those businesses that recognise and value having a highly effective financial management team member.

I have known Andrew for almost a year and have been impressed at the breadth of his business knowledge. Andrew's rapid analysis of business issues and clear and insightful suggestions and advice are always valuable and to the point.
