ISP: CENTRAL

Andy Duffield

Group Director of Health & Safety 

Andy joined the International Schools Partnership (ISP) in October 2017 as Group Health & Safety Director.

Before joining ISP, he spent nineteen years working in the construction industry in several different positions. These included thirteen years at Sunley Turiff working in Finance roles including Management Accountant and Sales Ledger and six years at Jarvis Plc as their Northern Compliance Manager for school refurbishment and construction projects.

Following this he worked at Nord Anglia as Building & Projects Manager, successfully completing new build school projects in Abu Dhabi and Prague.  During his time at Nord Anglia he progressed to Head of Health & Safety and successfully implemented the global Health & Safety strategy.

Andy’s Father was a big influence and an inspiration to him growing up, he admired his work ethic and he taught him the importance of how to work with people and work with integrity.  Andy has continued to learn and get better at these skills every day. His most recent roles have taught him how to be more relaxed, promote well-being and develop his social and people skills further in an international context.

In his spare time Andy enjoys nothing more than building his LEGO Architecture and exploring Britain with his wife Jane accompanied by their youngest daughter, Ellie, the Cockapoo! He loves travelling, which is a good job, as his role at ISP involves weeks on end in different countries all over the world that would not be possible without the suport Jane provides. He also enjoys spending time with his family and couscous!
