Pragmatic
A Bit About Me
Better climate and better Guinness greeted me as I left Limerick, and headed East to Dublin for some IT work experience way back when!
I would invest the next 15 years putting my computer science degree to work for Regulated Financial Services firms (I was a software developer. project manager, program manager, and customer relationship manager) before packing it in to check out a few rabbit holes, including; GDPR, Data Protection, and Cyber Security - all sides of the same (3D) cyber coin.
Today, I advise regulated FS firms on IT-related subjects, including how to safely and successfully onboard FinTechs who think they are a solution but are experienced by the firm as a risk.
I use my experience and industry knowledge to deliver pragmatic advice for FinTechs selling into Regulated FS firms on: how to get the most from your go-to-market strategy, navigating vendor management teams, getting past procurement, to what to expect that firm's CISO to be looking for. Sometimes, I have a lot to say about whether you should consider being ISO'd.
Areas of Expertise
Regulated Financial Services Firms
As well as those who sell to these firms.
Whom I work with:
- For ongoing staff training ad testing engagements, I typically work with an HR or Operations manager to agree on the scope and frequency of the training and testing.
​
- For one-off/board training engagements, I typically work with an executive or senior Operations manager to identify an appropriate scope and agenda for the session.
​
- For in-depth/advisory engagements, I typically work with an executive or senior manager in the firm who is accountable for IT, even though IT is not their primary area of expertise.
