Andrew Smith has an impressive background in leadership and management, and comes Touchtech from Pukeko Pictures where he was Chief Executive. 

While at Pukeko Pictures, Andrew was an executive producer of the Thunderbirds Are Go series, the producer of the WotWots and supervising producer for Jane and the Dragon. He also completed two capital raises and managed a period of fast growth. 

Prior to that, Andrew was the Commercial Manager for Weta Workshop and Weta Ltd, where he was the accountant for all of Weta Workshop’s major projects including The Lord of the Rings, Master and Commander, Last Samurai, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and King Kong. His interest in creative business makes him an excellent fit for Touchtech, who are thrilled to have Andrew’s enthusiasm and talent on board to manage our expansion.

Andrew says that he's excited about the opportunities at Touchtech.

“I am really looking forward to joining the team at Touchtech.  The company is in a growth phase, which is ideally suited to the skills and experience I am able to bring. My past roles at Weta Workshop and Pukeko Pictures were characterised by periods of exceptional growth." 

Andrew’s interest in Touchtech stems from his desire to break into the technology industry, and his unique background blending both financial and creative expertise is going to be a huge asset to Touchtech's ongoing growth.
