Andrew Smith

Andrew has been a fan of Kettle’s Yard since his first visit to the house in the early 1980s.

After an early career that included both product design and marketing management Andrew completed an MBA at the University of Hertfordshire. Later Andrew and a colleague formed a small company designing and producing gas and electric cooking and heating products.

Following a period of ill health coupled with the economic downturn Andrew took early retirement in 2011. On his recovery he started volunteering at Kettle’s Yard, officially becoming a member of staff in February 2014. He was delighted to be able to join the team again when Kettle’s Yard reopened in February 2018.

When not working in Kettle’s Yard, Andrew can often be found taking visitors round Bourn Post Mill or singing old music hall songs to anyone who’ll listen.
