Work experience

Risk Management - Information Security - Internal Audit Consultancy

Owner Advisory & Consultancy ServicesFreelance

May 2017 - Present

9 years 6 months

In my role as a Risk Management specialist, I deliver advisory services to small and big organisations to Manage their risks effectively while well documenting everything for the sake of Continuity and Compliance. My focus on, among others, Governance, Operational Risk Management, Information Security, Third-party Risk management, Operational Audit and Compliance has empowered different organisations to enhance their Risk - and Control environment. Via the effective roll-out of Regulatory requirements, Audit frameworks, Risk frameworks, Information Security frameworks (ISO 27001), Internal controls and Business Continuity, I help companies become more efficient, effective and resilient. By facilitating Climate change awareness sessions, I also contribute to fostering a culture of Sustainability (public and private sectors). Ultimate goal: lowering the carbon footprint by the creation of awareness and actionable exercises.

Head of Risk Management and Internal Audit

ISS BELUX (Facility Management)

Oct 2014 - Mar 2017

2 years 6 months

In my two separate roles, I focussed on elevating the Internal control environment by Managing Operational risks (for BELUX) on one side and Internal audits (BENELUX) on the other side. Among others, I developed a Risk framework, conducted Risk assessments, exchanged with the Directors on Strategic risks, improved the Compliance, developed an Audit framework, set-up Annual Audit plans and executed a large spectrum of Operational Audits. My efforts in Third-party Risk management ensured contractual Compliance on a broad set of requirements for Global players (spread over +60 countries), therefore reducing multiple Operational risks. I further maintained good internal relations with the Head-quarter in Denmark for the sake of independency, job efficiency and ad-hoc projects (e.g.: ISMS framework reviewer).
