What I'm looking for

I'm looking to help organisations build practical, ethical risk, governance, and compliance practices that strengthen resilience, meet regulatory requirements, and improve decision-making.

I've led operational risk, governance, and compliance work across Onafriq, FEM, FNB, Barclays Africa, Stanlib, and other financial-services organisations. At Onafriq, I reviewed incident management practices, proposed a Change Advisory Board model, supported ISO 31000 embedment, and led a distributed team of risk professionals.

I translate complex regulatory and risk requirements into practical frameworks, training, reporting, and improvement plans. My work includes RCSAs, risk appetite, incident and loss-data management, business continuity, audit remediation, fraud-risk gaps, and board-level reporting.
