CHARLES ELLIOTT ANDREWS
President
RSM McGladrey
Charles Elliott “C. E.” Andrews was appointed president of RSM McGladrey in June 2009. Andrews is responsible for helping the firm further build its brand, talent and its share in the middle market, while continuing its profitable growth.
Andrews joins the company after most recently serving as President of SLM Corporation (“Sallie Mae”) following a 29-year career with Arthur Andersen. At Sallie Mae he served from 2003-2008 first as executive vice president of accounting and risk management, and later as chief financial officer, president and chief executive officer.
Andrews began his career with Arthur Andersen in 1974 and became a partner in 1984. He held increasingly responsible positions in the firm, including key leadership roles in the metropolitan Washington office, the Mid-Atlantic Market Circle, the Southeast region, the United States National Practice and, ultimately, Arthur Andersen Global.
He managed all lines of business at Andersen, including audit, tax and consulting before being named head of Worldwide Audit and Business Advisory Practice in 2001. His office, market circle and region were top performers annually in terms of quality, growth and profitability within Arthur Andersen and among competitors. After Andersen ceased performing professional services in 2002, he remained with the firm to assist with its orderly and successful dissolution.
Andrews currently serves on the advisory board of Virginia Tech’s Pamplin College of Business. He is active in his community and is particularly involved with Junior Achievement.
Andrews graduated from Virginia Tech with a bachelor’s degree in accounting in 1974.
