Scott was awarded a CBE in the 2006 New Year Honours List for services to museums.[2]
In September 2009, Andrew Scott took over as acting director of the NMSI[3] after the dismissal of Molly Jackson over a breach of NMSI conduct.[4][5] On 15 October 2010[6] Andrew Scott retired and the new postholder was Ian Blatchford. He was recruited from being the Deputy Director of the Victoria and Albert Museum.[7]
