With extensive experience leading transformative projects across Europe, Latin America, and Africa, including initiatives involving firms with over 3,000 employees, Alex has established Remora as a global authority in cyber security consulting. Remora under Alex’s leadership specialises in crafting bespoke projects for organisations, spanning from cyber strategies to staff awareness and supply chain fortification, encompassing security and compliance architectural reviews, risk assessments, privacy impact evaluations, vulnerability assessments, virtual CISO, and GDPR Data Protection Officer (DPO) services. This comprehensive approach has proven successful across diverse international markets and organisational scales.

By equipping CEOs with comprehensive tools for informed decision-making, Remora enables proactive control over cyber threats across multiple jurisdictions and regulatory frameworks. Alex's commitment lies in delivering tailored services, eschewing the one-size-fits-all approach. As an independent London-based cyber security consultancy with global reach, Remora boasts a diverse clientele spanning Hedge Funds, Family Offices, Private Equity Firms, as well as entities within the FTSE 100/250 spectrum and now international Banks. The firm's expertise in managing large-scale international projects has enhanced its ability to serve organisations of all sizes effectively. Renowned as trusted advisors, Remora assists companies in implementing best practices for cyber threat prevention, detection, and response. The company's expertise and market focus amalgamate to provide a unique blend of professional proficiency and personalised service to a wide array of clients, from local enterprises to multinational organisations. Seamlessly integrating a full spectrum of services, Remora applies strategic frameworks to critical organisational activities vital for bolstering cyber defence posture: encompassing people, physical access, processes, networks, and applications. This approach has proven successful across various cultural contexts and organisational scales, from boutique firms to enterprises with thousands of employees. In surpassing the milestone of 300 clients, including several large-scale international projects, Remora achieved a remarkable feat—none of its clients experienced a cyber breach, reputational damage, or loss of data or financial assets. While maintaining its focus on individual clients within the UHNW or HNW space and commercial firms in the Hedge Fund, Private Equity, and Family Office sectors, Remora has successfully expanded its expertise to serve larger organisations across multiple continents, all while prioritising the preservation of reputation and safeguarding of assets.
