Andrea Wiggins

Consultant

With over 25 years’ experience across the voluntary and community sector and local authorities. Working my way through frontline and management roles to become a Chief Executive, I’ve led organisations through both change and challenge with empathy, resilience, and a steady focus on purpose. I specialise in helping third sector organisations to align vision, governance and operations so they can deliver meaningful outcomes and thrive. I work closely with boards and leadership teams to strengthen governance, improve systems, and build confidence and clarity in decision-making.

I bring a calm, commercially aware perspective, adept at balancing risks and opportunities to help organisations remain both values-driven and future-proof. I love helping organisations reimagine what’s possible, challenge conventional thinking, and turn great ideas into action. I lead with warmth, integrity and vision creating the space for people to engage, contribute and deliver their best.

Key Projects:

Interim Chief Executive, complex social care charity with a £19m turnover

Identified serious concerns regarding financial management and process resulting in insolvency. Directed an accelerated merger and acquisition process, maintaining 87% of permanent roles and 95% or services.
