I am a dedicated service provider with over 20 years of experience, specializing in human risk management and internal threat detection. My primary role has been Managing Director for Validato AG, where I have led the company's expansion across the Middle East while advising international clients on advanced human risk strategies. My expertise lies in identifying and mitigating insider threats, conducting sensitive investigations, third-party risk assessments, and building resilient human risk frameworks. I have proven my skills by establishing Validato’s Dubai operations from scratch, driving business development, client engagement, and operational rollout in alignment with Swiss compliance and quality standards. In addition to managing risk, I excel at upselling my services to clients. By creating comprehensive presentations covering topics such as human risks, insider threats, crisis management, and cybersecurity, I have successfully promoted our offerings leading to increased client engagement. As an effective communicator and team leader (up to 20 person under my supervision), I've provided technical advising and strategic project management to drive innovation and growth to more than 800 customers worldwide. My certifications in crisis response and cybersecurity complement my hands-on leadership in building Business Continuity Planning (BCP) strategies for global clients. The unique aspect of my service is that it doesn't end after implementing measures. I also provide continuous monitoring and support to ensure the effectiveness of these measures against evolving threats. Are you ready to safeguard your organization against threats? Let me help you build a robust human risk framework tailored specifically for your needs.
