This risk portfolio was then reviewed every 4 years, as the company and its markets were changing.

At AECOM, he ran for over 10 years the approval process for all projects triggering an exception to the corporate Delegation of Authority (say 2,000 projects a year), chaired the Enterprise Risk Committee approving, every year, the ~50 largest projects of the company, and led the team that reviewed monthly the top 40 ongoing projects from a risk standpoint.

TESTIMONIALS

TESTIMONIALS

In my prior role as the Assistant General Counsel for Operations and Risk Management at AECOM, I worked very closely with Regis in his role as Director of Risk Management for AECOM. 

 

Regis brought a level of insight to his analysis and assessment of enterprise and project level risks that can only come with extensive experience working on complex projects throughout the world.  Regis’ background and practical assessment of risks allowed him to provide sound guidance and to develop practical solutions.  He combined precise attention to detail with the ability to see the big picture.

 

Aside from his technical expertise, Regis’ background also allowed him to consider the financial and legal implications of specific business opportunities.  Thus, his support was not only critical for evaluating existing risks, but also for anticipating risks.  This skill proved beneficial for conducting due diligence for prospective mergers and acquisitions. 

​

I always found Regis to be objective, practical and a trusted business partner.
