Financial crime + data
Global Transaction-Monitoring Data Integrity and Controls
Building evidence that monitoring systems receive the complete and correct data they are expected to process.
Aggregate reporting could not by itself prove that all required transaction and customer data reached monitoring completely, correctly and with sufficient evidence.
Global lead for Transaction Monitoring Data Strategy and Data Controls Management, leading international teams and senior governance engagement.
Strengthened the Data Integrity Control Framework across completeness, correctness, reconciliation, lineage, issue management, ownership and executive evidence.
A more structured and defensible control environment, clearer accountability and stronger evidence of transaction-monitoring data integrity across approximately 30 jurisdictions and 38 legal entities.

Payments transformation
End-to-End UK Faster Payments Delivery
Connecting business requirements, architecture, testing, resilience and live implementation for critical payments infrastructure.
Development of a new high-volume UK payments capability involving banks, central infrastructure, settlement integration, technology delivery and operational readiness.
The programme had to move from an emerging industry concept to a reliable live service while addressing scale, performance, security, recovery and cross-bank dependencies.
Served as project manager, led business-analysis and architecture coordination, and maintained the programme relationship with the Bank of England for a sustained period.
Led key components from scope and requirements through non-functional requirements, integration, UAT, operational testing, resilience, implementation and warranty.
Helped translate an ambitious payment concept into an operationally credible service with defined requirements, tested resilience, implementation controls and early-life support.

European payments
European SEPA Transformation Across 18 Countries
Re-establishing control, funding and delivery confidence across a complex multi-country regulatory payments programme.
A major banking group with multiple heritage businesses, business segments and significant European payment-change obligations.
The programme required recovery and stronger governance to align scope, funding, technology, operations and regulatory readiness across 18 countries.
Senior programme manager responsible for business-case development, programme recovery, payments and regulatory change, risk approvals and stakeholder alignment.
Reframed and mobilised the programme, secured Board approval, coordinated cross-jurisdiction delivery and led operational-risk and readiness assessments.
Established a more controlled and credible route to regulatory compliance and payment modernisation across a complex European banking environment.

Operational resilience
Critical-Supplier, Location and Concentration-Risk Frameworks
Turning broad dependency concerns into assessment methods, controls, ownership and regulatory evidence.
A global banking business with material supplier, geographic, workforce and technology dependencies supporting critical services.
Existing processes did not provide sufficiently consistent identification, assessment, ownership or evidence of critical-supplier and concentration risks.
Senior programme and risk-transformation leadership across methodology design, risk appetite, control frameworks, first-line embedding and audit remediation.
Developed critical-supplier controls, location and concentration-risk methodologies, preventative and detective controls, governance and reporting.
More structured risk identification, clearer control ownership and stronger evidence for senior, audit and UK regulatory stakeholders.
05
Data transformation
Large-Scale Data Governance and Migration Readiness
Ensuring that critical data remains controlled, traceable and usable through a major asset-transfer programme.
A major UK financial-services asset-transfer and migration programme involving complex datasets and downstream risk, reporting and analytics dependencies.
Technical transfer milestones alone could not resolve questions about lineage, ownership, quality, usability and operational acceptance.
Business and data consultant leading governance, data quality, testing and migration-readiness activities across stakeholder groups.
Defined key-data-element governance, lineage and traceability, coordinated data-quality and testing activity and assessed migration readiness and downstream usability.
Provided a stronger basis for controlled migration and trusted use of transferred datasets across risk, reporting, analytics and future automation.
