Senior RISK MANAGEMENT & Defence Specialist
Nearly three decades of executive leadership in security, defence procurement, risk management, and tactical operations across complex, high-threat global environments.
With over 30 years of hands-on and executive experience in the tactical and security sectors. As the Founder and Managing Director of Stratagem Risk International, I specialize in defence procurement, close protection, and high-value asset transit for government ministries, corporates, and high-net-worth clients.
My background spans virtually every tier of the industry—from strategic defence advisory and specialized logistics to live-fire range assessments and facility penetration testing. Having operated across South Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and Sub-Saharan Africa, I bring a multi-layered understanding of delivering world-class security operations in complex jurisdictions.
A core pillar of my philosophy is the value of personal relationships and absolute discretion. I work closely with principals to design security solutions that integrate naturally into their routines, providing rigorous protection without creating unnecessary friction or unwanted exposure.
"Precision and discretion are non-negotiable. Every service provided under the Stratagem umbrella meets strict, uncompromised standards, ensuring agility in crisis and absolute reliability in execution."
