What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values security and compliance, offers growth opportunities, and fosters collaboration across teams.

I am a seasoned Information Security Manager with over 8 years of experience in the financial services sector, specializing in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). My expertise lies in designing comprehensive information security strategies, conducting risk assessments, and managing third-party compliance. I have a proven track record of translating technical risks into business language, which drives informed decision-making across both financial and technology sectors.

In my current role as GRC Manager at FIDEL PORTUGAL UNIPESSOAL, LDA, I develop and implement governance frameworks and policies aligned with industry standards. I spearhead risk management initiatives and collaborate with cross-functional teams to streamline privacy processes. My previous experience includes serving as a Senior Information Security Auditor at Farfetch, where I maintained and enhanced the information security risk management system, ensuring compliance with various regulatory requirements.
