Assessor/ Trainee Internal Verifier

Andrew was born and raised in Glasgow but now calls Inverness home.

With over 31 years dedicated to law enforcement, he served his community as a high-ranking police officer, undertaking a variety of roles that were consistently guided by his faith, a central influence in both his personal and professional life.

Each position reinforced his commitment to integrity, service, and community, shaping him into the person he is today.

After transitioning from the police force, Andrew discovered a new calling with a prominent multinational humanitarian organization. Over the past 13 years, he has built a solid foundation in health and social care, beginning as a Team Leader responsible for managing over 50 support workers who assisted more than 100 service users.

Today, Andrew is one of EM Training's experienced SVQ Assessors and is currently training to become an Internal Verifier. In his work, he assesses candidates across a range of health and social care settings, ensuring that quality standards are upheld and the next generation of caregivers is well-prepared for success.

Over time, she expanded her focus to include learners within Adult Services, a shift that has strengthened her commitment to quality in vocational training.

With over 20 years of experience in residential care, Gill brings a wealth of practical knowledge and understanding to her role.
