@hensleymadamombe
I’m a Risk Manager who builds ISO-aligned ERM frameworks, improves compliance, and drives insurance growth through actionable risk insight.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Risk Management professional with 10+ years of progressive experience across enterprise risk management, governance, regulatory compliance, and business development. I design and implement ERM frameworks that reduce organisational risk exposure and translate complex risk into board-ready decisions.
At Printflow, I launched and embedded a company-wide Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework within 60 days, aligned to ISO 31000. I built a live Risk Register tracking 40+ enterprise risks across six business units, established 15+ KRIs and risk appetite statements, and rolled out risk awareness for 200+ staff—lifting engagement by an estimated 40%.
As Broking Manager at Gene Insure, I led business development and compliance while delivering 25% growth in Gross Written Premium (GWP) over two years. I achieved 100% regulatory compliance in six months by developing SOPs and internal control manuals, reduced client claims turnaround time by 35%, and improved underwriting and portfolio decisions through loss experience analytics across 150+ clients.
Earlier, as a Senior Underwriter at Zimnat General Insurance, I consistently maintained aggregate loss ratios below 45% (vs. ~60% benchmark). I reduced adverse risk acceptance by 30% and fraudulent claims by 20% using enhanced risk surveys, portfolio analytics, and fraud detection checks at point of underwriting, while mentoring underwriters to raise adherence to underwriting guidelines from 75% to 98%.
