A cyber security professional with over 15 years of experience leading penetration testing, red team operations, and cyber assurance engagements across financial services, corporate, and public sector organisations. My expertise lies in managing the end‑to‑end lifecycle of security engagements; from proposals, legal engagement letters, scoping, and planning, through delivery, team leadership, analysis, and reporting. I specialise in insider threat testing, SOC resilience assessments, and full‑scope red team exercises, ensuring clients gain a realistic view of their security posture. I am recognised for building trusted client relationships and acting as the primary point of contact for senior stakeholders. I translate complex technical findings into clear, business‑focused insights, presenting risks and remediation advice to boards, non‑executive directors, and audit committees. I combine deep technical expertise with strong leadership and communication skills to deliver security outcomes that matter, helping organisations strengthen resilience, meet compliance standards, and make informed risk decisions.
