We were delighted to see that Andrew Vickery, Managing Director of WHA member company, Thirstywork, has been named One To Watch in The LDC Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders programme 2022.
The programme, which is supported by The Times and now in its fifth year, celebrates those entrepreneurs that are growing the UK’s most successful and fast-growing medium-sized firms. A record number of nominations – more than 750 – were received this year, proving that ambition is alive and well despite the challenges faced by increasing economic uncertainty.
