Focused assurance and risk professional in financial services.

What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters growth and values proactive risk management.

I am a dedicated assurance and risk professional with extensive experience in governance, risk management, and compliance within the financial services sector. My career began at a major financial services regulator, where I enforced high standards of conduct and integrity among firms. Currently, I work at one of the largest consulting firms in the UK, providing advisory services on governance, risk, and compliance. My expertise includes conducting risk assessments, identifying and mitigating risks, and effectively communicating with stakeholders.

Throughout my career, I have played a pivotal role in designing and implementing risk management frameworks for investment banks, ensuring robust security measures and compliance with regulatory standards. I have successfully supported firms in managing vulnerabilities and have developed comprehensive risk communication policies. As a social media advocate for ISACA, I actively share insights on cybersecurity, keeping my network informed about emerging threats and best practices. My commitment to excellence and proactive approach to risk management make me a valuable asset in any organization.
