Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Watkin is a Senior Infrastructure Project Manager based in London with over 15 years in telecoms and IT delivery and 9 years in senior project roles driving complex, cross-border infrastructure change. He currently leads QBE Europe’s infrastructure portfolio, owning large migrations and rollouts—from OneDrive/Intune and Windows 11 upgrades to global video conferencing and multi-hundred-staff office relocations—while regularly deputising for the portfolio manager. Comfortable across Waterfall and sprint-based approaches and a Prince2 Practitioner, he blends hands-on technical knowledge (telecoms, WAN/LAN/MPLS, VMware, cloud services, Isilon storage) with people-first stakeholder management. Colleagues rely on his approachable, solution-oriented style and willingness to field ideas and work across timezones. Less obvious: he cut his teeth installing payment and Wi‑Fi systems in retail environments, giving him practical operational insight that helps bridge strategy and site-level delivery.
