Colin leads FINTRAIL’s work supporting clients across the broader spectrum of risk and compliance beyond financial crime. He brings over 20 years of experience in the financial services sector, spanning roles in regulation, consultancy, and industry.

Before joining FINTRAIL, Colin held senior leadership positions, including as Head of Risk and Compliance for a pan-European FinTech, where he was the accountable executive for regulatory relationships and enterprise-wide compliance strategy.
