Work where getting it wrong has consequences
Selected engagements across banking, government, energy infrastructure, and AI decision systems — environments where data accuracy, accountability, and regulatory compliance are not optional.
Banking — Regulatory Reporting
Regulatory reporting to the Bank of England
Designed and implemented regulatory reporting pipelines, data quality frameworks, and approval processes within a global banking environment — supporting statutory reporting obligations to central regulators including the Bank of England.
Responsibilities included end-to-end data integrity controls, validation frameworks, and governance of data used in official regulatory submissions. The work required systems that could withstand direct regulatory scrutiny and demonstrate accuracy at every stage of the data chain.
