How I Work

Security Leadership, Structured for Speed

I work with a small number of companies at a time. Engagements are structured to deliver powerful outcomes in the most efficient way possible.

No bloated contracts. No unnecessary friction.

Just results.

1. Fractional CISO

Ongoing senior security leadership embedded at executive level.

Best for:

  • High-growth startups
  • Regulated fintech / crypto firms
  • Companies preparing for funding or acquisition
  • Leadership teams that need clarity fast

Typically structured as:

  • Monthly retainer
  • Defined availability
  • Direct access to executive team and board
  • Clear scope and quarterly review

2. Board & Investor Advisory

Focused advisory for boards, PE, and VC.

  • Risk posture reviews
  • Due diligence support
  • Incident decision support
  • Executive risk briefings

Structured as:

  • Advisory retainer
  • Quarterly engagements
  • Or project-based review

3. Strategic Consulting

Targeted engagement for specific outcomes.

Examples:

  • Security program design
  • Zero trust architecture
  • Regulatory readiness
  • Post-incident stabilization
Defined scope. Defined outcome. Defined timeline.

4. Interim & Crisis Response

Short-term, high-intensity engagement when something has gone wrong - or when leadership transitions leave a security vacuum.

Examples:

  • Post-breach stabilisation and recovery leadership
  • Interim CISO coverage during leadership transitions
  • Regulatory response and remediation oversight
  • Rapid security posture assessment under pressure
Fixed-term. Defined handover. Typically 30-90 days.

On Speed & Simplicity

For the right ventures, I'm comfortable working under FAST agreements.

If there's alignment, we don't need weeks of negotiation to start solving real problems.

I value long-term relationships built on trust and performance - not paperwork.

Investment

Senior-level security leadership is a leverage function.

If you're looking for the lowest-cost option, I'm not the right fit.

If you want someone who has built from founding team to unicorn valuation, operated across Dubai and London, and understands regulatory pressure - we should talk.

Most engagements start because the cost of getting this wrong is higher than the cost of getting it right.

No sales pitches, please.
