Taiwo Omotunde
@taiwoomotunde
Strategic information security and operations leader driving compliance and resilience.
What I'm looking for
I am a strategic, results-driven operations and information security leader with over a decade of experience implementing management systems, quality assurance and information security frameworks like ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 27001, NIST and NIS 2. I lead cross-functional teams to translate complex standards into practical, business-aligned solutions that reduce risk and improve operational efficiency.
I have conducted over 100 audits and led QMS/ISMS implementations across organisations, delivered training to 200+ professionals, and designed incident response, disaster recovery and business continuity programs that measurably improved resilience and reduced recovery times. My approach combines technical depth with stakeholder engagement to ensure compliance, continuous improvement and measurable outcomes.
I seek to drive organisational transformation through risk-based decision making, process optimisation and capability building, providing strategic GRC advisory to executives while embedding security and quality as operational culture rather than checkbox compliance.
