(Head of Risk and Governance, Co-op): Sharing his highly strategic, military-trained approach to risk management and providing insights following the recent high-profile operational challenges faced by the Co-op.

I use risk, uncertainty and strategy to help organisations take better decisions, faster. Strategic risk, assisting and advising boards and executives on uncertainty;

Managing corporate risk under uncertainty; AI and Machine Learning: prediction and prescriptive analytics; Principal Risks; Viability;Scenario analysis and stress-testing; Linking corporate outcomes to enablers; Multi-variate risk management;Machine learning, especially Bayesian Networks; Combining data and expert opinion; Integrating Risk and Assurance focus and resources.

I have provided advice on strategic risk to boards, executives and functional heads in a number of sectors, including consumer products, technology, life sciences, infrastructure, and government.

A near-obsession with risk, risk management, the psychology of risk and decision-making imbues much that I undertake, and is matched by a proven track-record in delivering real world solutions that both provide requisite assurance and compliance, whilst delivering measurable upside.

Client-focused, and driven by achievements and results; across my broad portfolio I have kept a passion for quality through researched, data (and therefore evidenced)-based decisions.
