Andy Rumfitt, Managing Director

Andy founded Rumfitt Associates in 2025 after 35 years of senior work in planning policy, economic appraisal and infrastructure delivery. He has led or appraised more than 180 Green Book business cases, worked on some of the UK's most significant transport schemes as well as many local and regional regeneration projects and programmes.

At AECOM, Andy built the economics practice from two people to a team of 30. He went on to become a Senior Director at Turley. His team’s work on Crossrail 2 won the Institute of Economic Development 2018 Award for Greatest Economic Impact.

A geographer at heart, Andy is interested in how investment shapes places and the people who live and work in them. He brings that perspective to every commission, alongside the technical rigour that leading funders and serious decision makers expect.
