What I'm looking for

I seek a senior role driving ESG and compliance strategy within hybrid-friendly organisations, advising leadership and strengthening 2LOD frameworks.

I am a strategic ESG, compliance, and risk management professional with over 20 years' experience across legal, environmental, infrastructure, and regulated sectors. I combine legal training and engineering insight to deliver practical, risk-informed ESG solutions aligned with evolving regulation.

Throughout my career I have built and overseen second line of defence frameworks, led regulatory alignment projects, and advised senior leadership on ESG disclosures and emerging risks. I have designed ESG KPIs and documentation models that support board-level decision-making and regulatory compliance.

I have led compliance and governance structures in heavily regulated industries, including energy, procurement, and construction, and participated in public tenders and financial viability evaluations. I deliver training and develop internal audit systems with integrated ESG and data governance elements.

I am passionate about sustainable governance, stakeholder collaboration, and strengthening compliance culture. I bring a proven track record of facilitating communication between risk owners and executives to drive stronger oversight and practical implementation of ESG and compliance programs.
