About Nicolas

GRC Consultant Certified ISO27701 and EBIOS RM | Governance and Compliance Expert | Rigorous, Pragmatic, Curious

Welcome to my profile! I am an experienced GRC consultant with a rich background of 3 years at PwC as an IT security auditor, followed by just over 2 years as a GRC consultant at Accenture and Formind. This experience has allowed me to specialize in compliance, particularly in IT security auditing, ISO27001 auditing, and maturity assessment. I have also acquired project management skills, further strengthening my versatility and ability to lead various assignments.

My work philosophy is based on rigor, pragmatism, and curiosity. I firmly believe in the importance of these values in the complex world of governance, risk, and compliance. My goal is to provide tailored and effective solutions to help my clients achieve their compliance and security objectives.

I am ISO27701 and EBIOS RM certified, which attests to my expertise in assessing and managing data privacy risks. With my expertise in governance and compliance, I am also open to exploring risk analysis topics, continually seeking to expand my skills and bring added value to my clients.

If you are looking for a passionate, committed GRC consultant capable of meeting your compliance, governance, and risk management needs, do not hesitate to contact me. I would be delighted to collaborate with you and contribute to your company's success.
