What I'm looking for

I am looking for a managerial role that allows me to leverage my extensive experience in compliance and risk management while fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment.

I am a highly skilled executive with over 18 years of experience in the financial services industry, specializing in legislation, financial institutions, and accounting. My extensive background includes expertise in anti-money laundering, enterprise risk management, internal audits, internal controls, and capital markets. I earned a Ph.D. in Accounting and Finance, which provides a solid educational foundation to support my professional journey.

Throughout my career, I have held significant positions, including Assistant Professor of Accounting and Strategic Planning Coordinator at Istanbul Yeni Yuzyil University, where I prepared strategic plans and coordinated with various departments. My experience as VP of Compliance & Risk Management at Yapı Kredi Invest allowed me to manage the Compliance Department effectively, developing company policies and procedures while ensuring regulatory adherence. I am now seeking a managerial position where I can share my knowledge and experience to drive organizational success.
