Risk and Governance

Confidence and control

Sound governance and disciplined risk management protect value and build the confidence of boards, shareholders and partners. We help you put in place frameworks that are practical, proportionate to your context and applied in practice.

Challenges we solve

  • Governance that has not kept pace with the organisation's scale and complexity
  • Unclear authority: who decides what, and at what level
  • Key risks that are known informally but not managed systematically
  • Policies that exist on paper but are not applied or evidenced
  • Preparing for new investors, shareholders or board oversight

How we help

01

Corporate Governance Frameworks

Clarity on who decides what.

We design your governance framework, board and management roles, delegation of authority, and the supporting policy framework.

02

Board and Committee Governance

Boards and committees that work effectively.

We develop charters, composition guidance, annual calendars and meeting packs, and set up tracking of decisions through to implementation.

03

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)

Risks identified early and managed deliberately.

We build a risk framework tailored to your organisation, covering risk appetite, methodology, registers, ownership and regular reporting.

04

Operational and Project Risk Management

Risk management where the work happens.

We embed risk management in daily operations and in project and programme delivery, with practical tools to identify, assess, mitigate and monitor risks.

05

Internal Controls and Compliance

Controls that are applied and evidenced.

We design internal control frameworks and compliance registers, define control owners and testing approaches, and help you track findings to closure.

06

Governance Reporting and Executive Dashboards

A clear, regular view for leadership and the board.

We design governance and risk reporting and executive dashboards covering key risks, compliance status, control findings and actions taken.

Outcomes we work towards with you

  • Clear authority and decision rights
  • A shared, up-to-date view of key risks
  • Policies and controls that are applied in practice
  • Greater confidence for boards, shareholders and partners

How to start

Engagements can begin with the Risk and Governance module of the Executive Organisational Diagnostic, which gives a maturity rating and a prioritised remediation plan.
