I am an experienced Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC) corporate executive, tasked with assessing and mitigating significant regulatory, strategic and operational risks that may potentially affect the achievement of the organisation’s strategic objectives and core mandate.
I have a demonstrated history of working in the financial services industry, skilled in Enterprise Risk Management, Strategic Planning and Performance Reporting, Compliance and Ethics Management, Internal Audit, Business Continuity Management, as well as Monitoring and Evaluation.
I have been serving the Office of the Ombudsman for Financial Services Providers on the Executive Management Committee and operate at a strategic level, wearing the “Chief Risk Officer hat”.
