What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead technology, cyber, operational resilience, and regulatory assurance work where I can build practical control frameworks, improve risk detection through audit automation, and coach high-performing teams.

At KPMG UK, I lead technology and cyber control assurance engagements for financial-services clients, delivering SOC 1, SOC 2, SOX, PCI DSS, ITGC, and application-control reviews.

I design ISO 27001-aligned risk and control frameworks, build new SOX programmes from the ground up, and translate complex technology risk into clear reporting for audit committees, regulators, and senior stakeholders. I have assessed more than 100 enterprise systems, cloud environments in AWS and Azure, payment-processing controls, AI-enabled reconciliation systems, and valuation-model data integrity.

Previously at KPMG East Africa, I audited banks, insurers, and critical payment infrastructure across Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda. I lead multidisciplinary teams, coach junior auditors, and use Alteryx, IDEA, and Power BI to strengthen full-population testing, risk detection, and remediation tracking.
