Kubus CEO Andrew Humphrey named one of the UK’s Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders for 2024
It’s a very proud day for all of us at Kubus, as our CEO Andrew Humphrey is named as one of the LDC’s Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders for 2024.
Created by trusted investment partner LDC – part of Lloyds Banking Group, The Top 50 celebrates entrepreneurs demonstrating remarkable ambition, and is now in its seventh year. This year the programme received more than 700 nominations, so the competition was fierce, with immense talent being showcased all across the UK. In the official article released in The Times this morning, Andrew was placed at number 26 of the top 50.
The business leaders featured in The LDC Top 50 for 2024 are making a real impact by creating jobs, promoting social equality, championing sustainability, expanding internationally and integrating purpose into their business practices. They operate from 39 towns and cities across the UK and span every sector of the economy, whilst collectively they employ 5,146 people and generate revenues of more than £1.1bn.
Andrew’s mission to turn Kubus, formerly Hardware, into an exceptional place to work has progressed immensely during his time as CEO. In two years, he has increased holiday allowance and pension contributions for staff, reduced working hours and introduced a hybrid working structure, been accredited as a Living Wage Employer, and received an ‘Outstanding’ Best Companies rating for two years in a row.
“I’m honoured to have made the LDC top 50, it’s a huge achievement not only for me but for the business as well. It’s been my mission to make Kubus an inclusive, caring, enjoyable place to work; I believe if you treat employees properly, they’ll go the extra mile without being asked. This work ethic is evident within our team, and I’m really proud to have created a place of business whose employees genuinely want to be here.”
Andrew Humphrey, CEO, Kubus.
John Garner, Managing Partner at LDC, added:
“It’s been seven years since we launched The LDC Top 50 and in that time we’ve had the privilege of meeting some truly remarkable people. Our business leaders for 2024 show relentless drive and determination in their growth ambitions, and I’d like to congratulate them on everything they’ve achieved so far. This is certainly not the end of their success, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.”
Kubus continues to grow and develop under Andrews leadership, with him having recently secured a £9M investment from BGF which will allow the business to focus on expanding our networking and security managed services, as well as our technical solutions.
We are all incredibly proud of Andrew for winning such a prestigious award, and it’s clear that Kubus will only continue to flourish with him at the fore. Congratulations Andrew!
