What's the day-to-day of your role like?
As Head of Group Security, my day involves implementing strategies to mitigate potential risks, coordinating with teams, staying updated on the latest security technologies and trends, reviewing the security dashboard, and addressing security queries from our Service Delivery teams.

Why did you join SK Tes?
Years ago, I was a customer of SK Tes and engaged their services for security audits. I was impressed by Terence's dedication to both business and people. In a candid conversation, he mentioned an open position in security. Intrigued, I went through several interviews and ultimately secured my role. The entire process followed proper channels with no shortcuts.
