Meet the Business Development Manager - Andy Boorman

Meet Andy, our Head of Business Development for Business Travel, bringing over 20 years of industry experience and a passion for helping our members to thrive.

Andy has spent his entire 20-year career immersed in the world of Business Travel. His journey began in 2005 at HRG, where he joined as a trainee consultant. Since then, he has built a well-rounded career, taking on roles across Operations, Account Management, and Sales each adding depth to his understanding of the travel industry and shaping his passion for delivering exceptional service.

In 2016, Andy joined Advantage, where he now leverages his wealth of experience to support a network of over 300 member agencies. Whether it's through business development, commercial initiatives, or hands-on sales support, Andy is driven by the opportunity to make a tangible difference to the businesses he works with. No two days are ever the same and that's exactly what he enjoys most about the role.

Away from the business travel world, Andy is a proud husband and father to two children aged 14 and 12. He also shares his home with an overly excitable cockapoo and a cat who seems to think she’s in charge. As he jokes, he's very much last in the family pecking order. Andy is also a life long suffering Spurs fan... we could never question his loyalty!

Unsurprisingly, Andy also has a love for travel outside of work. His next big dream? A classic fly-drive adventure along the US West Coast, something that’s firmly at the top of his bucket list.

For Andy, business travel is ultimately about people. Relationships, collaboration, and shared ambitions are what keep him inspired. With a career that continues to evolve and a strong commitment to supporting the Advantage Travel Partnership membership, Andy is as passionate as ever about helping agencies grow and thrive in an ever-changing industry.
