Andy Brown - Business Development Director

A recent addition to the Summit team, Andy brings more than 20 years of traditional and digital marketing experience to his role.

Previously working for clients as varied as Littlewoods, Boden, LG Electronics and Chupa Chups, Andy ran his own successful agency for seven years, leading it from start-up to sale. He then provided consultancy services to some of the UK’s leading digital agencies before joining Summit.

As business development director, Andy is responsible for Summit’s new business initiatives, from strategy through to execution, as well as taking a lead role in the company’s external communications.

A native of Brighton, he’s a passionate fan of The Seagulls (Brighton and Hove Albion FC for the uninitiated). When not gracing the terraces, Andy spends many a happy hour with a stout piece of willow in his hand, knocking cricket balls far and wide.
