Executive Overview

Over the last years at STC, my primary focus has been to establish, develop and maintain a sound compliance, internal audit, risk management, corporate fraud control and corporate governance function for my multinational company. Through these functions I have been able to promote the highest standards of control and provide an informed independent opinion to the Board of Directors and Audit Committee on how effectively the systems of control are working to protect the interests of the company shareholders. I have also been able to identify financial, IT and operational risks and work with senior management to create cost effective controls for proper protection against those risks. Throughout my career I have shown an ability and willingness to learn and adopt new technologies. My high energy levels and a "can-do" attitude along with an eye for detail and high quality have allowed me to consistently perform at the very highest levels. My proven communication and presentation skills have been essential to my effective working at all levels across my roles to date.
