Big-4 firepower… Nano-1 pricing and simplicity.

Less is More.jpg

A strategy without risk taking is a to-do list. My job is to narrow the spectrum of uncertainty until instinct becomes “informed”- empowering you to execute.

How?

  • I have 30 years government and private sector experience working for and/or advising Fortune 100s, ASX 100s, State and Federal Governments.

  • I’ve led teams in Risk, Emergency, Compliance, Security and Resilience and worked hand-in-glove with Strategy, M&A, C-Suites and Boards.

  • I’ve either done it, seen it, heard about it, or know somebody who has. If a task is beyond me… I’ll call it and refer somebody smarter than me.

These are the (main) things we should talk about:

  • Me acting in a senior risk role in a time of need - I have acted as interim Chief Risk Officer for government agencies and multi-national corporations

  • Linking strategy and risk

  • Deep dives on complex risks (including M&A)

  • Appetite for risk taking

  • Risk workshops (up to and including C-Suite Lead Teams)

  • Strengthening internal teams

  • Risk team “irrelevance interventions”

  • Independent (but collaborative) opinion / reviews

  • Risk profile completeness analysis

  • Crisis and emergency management

  • Organisational resilience

    FAQs:

    Fee:

    I have a very affordable day rate as compared to sailing under the BIG4 Flag so you get the BIG4 / Fortune100 experience without the added expense. (When I was a fully utilised BIG4 Director I was $3250 per day - and I’m better now).

    Speed:

    30 years experience means I’m fast. If a team of juniors can do it in a week, I can probably do it in a couple of days. Not because I’m smarter but because I’ve probably already done it a bunch of times.

    Collaboration:

    I predominantly serve one global client for a portion of my time and partner with one international Risk Consulting Practice and one international Protective Security Consultancy for the balance. Whilst you may need to wait weeks or months for service - it’s worth it!

    Availability:

    I live in a cottage in the mountains outside Melbourne but work all over the world (in person or via tech) so geography isn’t a blocker. I absolutely love my cottage, everyone in it, and my mountains.
