With over 10 years’ experience as a Health and Safety Consultant and Fire Risk Assessor, I have supported businesses of all sizes, from start-ups to large international organisations. Throughout that time, I have seen the serious consequences that arise when legal requirements are misunderstood.
Many organisations believed they had appointed a competent advisor, only to discover gaps that exposed them to risk. That is why I founded Riskhop, to raise awareness, keep people safe, and help business grow without the worry legal problems arising.
I have led safety on multi-million-pound projects, undertaken assessments of complex high-rise and higher-risk buildings, and mentored junior consultants to raise professional standards across the industry. My expertise is underpinned by IOSH Chartered Membership and professional membership with the Institute of Fire Safety Managers (IFSM).
I provide practical guidance and deliver clear, actionable solutions that protect your people, your reputation and your business.
