We are pleased to share that Andrew Bruce will be stepping into the role of Managing Director of Waterman Aspen from 1 August 2025. This follows Mark Emberton’s move into his new position as Chief Operating Officer for Waterman UK.
Andrew joined Waterman Aspen in 2008, beginning his journey with a secondment at Durham County Council. Since then, he has held roles across all levels of the management team, gaining a deep understanding of the business as it has navigated economic recessions, a global pandemic, and significant changes in how we work. Throughout this time, Waterman Aspen has grown substantially, nearly tripling in size, and Andrew remains focused on continuing to build a resilient and forward-thinking business for the future.
Commenting on his new role, Andrew said: “I am excited about the future for Waterman Aspen and our industry. We have a fantastic opportunity to embrace new technologies, continue to evolve as a business, and further strengthen the relationships we have with all of our valued clients across the UK.”
Outside of work, Andrew enjoys running, spending time with his family, and supporting Newcastle United. He has taken on several challenging running events and raised thousands of pounds for charity along the way.
Andrew succeeds Mark Emberton, who has been with Waterman Aspen for nearly 35 years and has served as Managing Director since 2018.
Excited about Andrew’s new appointment and what lies ahead for Waterman Aspen, Mark said: “Waterman Aspen is in great shape, and I am proud to have been part of its journey so far. I am confident that Andrew will excel in his new role and receive the full support he needs in this fantastic company made up of great people. Please join me in wishing him all the very best.”
We wish both Andrew and Mark every success in their new roles and look forward to the exciting future ahead for Waterman.
