Background

About Maria McAnearney

I'm a Chartered Accountant with a strong foundation in risk consulting, internal audit, and GRC advisory. My passion lies in business operations, transformation, and building high-performing teams. With over 5 years of experience across regulatory compliance, process redesign, and strategic change, I thrive in complex environments where I can solve problems, improve processes, and drive meaningful outcomes. My core strength is bridging the gap between strategic vision and operational execution. Whether it's leading a transformation initiative, designing risk and control frameworks, or enhancing business operations, I bring structure, clarity, and momentum to organisations navigating change. I’m particularly drawn to dynamic industries where strong operational leadership can unlock growth and impact. I relish opportunities to combine my business acumen, team leadership, and process mindset to steer organisations through growth and evolution. If you’re building something ambitious and need someone who understands both governance and growth - I’d love to connect.
