- Being responsible for expanding our cloud security services in the FS sector.
- Providing leadership and collaborating with people across the coverage groups on the cloud security service line to deliver a clear and unified strategy.
- Leading FS sales origination/business development initiatives and acting as an integral part of the broader Technology and Cyber Security leadership team.
- Contributing to the overall FS cyber security strategy by identifying where there are opportunities for growth and developing the strategy to capitalise on cyber security risk opportunities in this sector.

- Actively identifying and progressing FS business development opportunities, as well as managing sales activities such as responding to RFPs, bid management, proposal writing and client presentations.
