Background

About Jamil Ahmed

Experienced IT Risk & Compliance Leader with over two decades of cross-industry expertise in cybersecurity, internal controls, SOX compliance, and enterprise risk management. I specialise in aligning technology strategies with business objectives, building governance frameworks, and driving operational excellence across complex environments. Throughout my career, I’ve led transformational initiatives—from establishing IT Risk and Control functions from the ground up to implementing automated change management controls that significantly reduced audit deficiencies. I’ve partnered with senior leadership, audit committees, and cross-functional teams to embed a risk-aware culture, streamline compliance processes, and enhance resilience across IT operations. My approach combines strategic vision with hands-on execution, leveraging tools like Github/GitLab, JIRA and Confluence to drive collaboration, transparency, and continuous improvement. Whether advising on regulatory compliance, managing third-party risk, or leading enterprise-wide control assessments, I bring a proactive mindset and a commitment to integrity, innovation, and results.
