The Openwork Partnership has announced the addition of Andrews Property Group to the network.

The agreement underlines the strategy for growth at The Openwork Partnership following its recent rebrand, which includes continuing expansion of the network and extending its range of propositions.

Established in 1946, Bristol-based Andrews operates from 47 offices throughout the South of England and its addition means there are now more than 2,500 mortgage and protection advisers within The Openwork Partnership, with a further 200 advisers in the pipeline.

Joining The Openwork Partnership, which operates as a directly authorised, multi-panel distribution network, will enable Andrews to expand its client offering to include wealth advice.

Andrews chief operating officer, Paul Bumford, said: “We chose The Openwork Partnership because of their award-winning mortgage proposition as well as the strong cultural fit between the businesses.

“Offering a wider choice of solutions to our clients is important to Andrews and we look forward to working with everyone across the network as we expand our advice offering to new and existing clients looking for support across mortgages, protection and wealth.”

The Openwork Partnership managing director, mortgages and protection, John Cupis, added: “We would like to welcome everyone at Andrews and their business partners to Openwork and look forward to helping them to deliver on their ambitions plans over the coming months and years.

“It is particularly pleasing to finalise the partnership with Andrews during the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrating the appeal of The Openwork Partnership following our recent rebrand.

“It is testament to the fantastic work of everyone at The Openwork Partnership that Andrews has chosen to partner with us during these turbulent times and is also capitalising on the opportunity to diversify into pensions and investment advice.”
