Bio
Patrik Heuri
It’s rare that you come across standout talent like Marc ! I have had the privilege of having Marc as my direct report as department manager for almost five years. Marc and I closely worked in developing and implementing together the Global Information Security Risk strategy as well as many innovative solutions. Through the years that we spent together in a professional environment, I have seen Marc grow both as a risk and security professional and a human being – and neither has been a disappointment. Marc is a calculated risk-taker. He has an uncanny way of foreseeing what will be the next challenges and upcoming threats and has the capability to anticipate the mitigations accordingly. As a pragmatic leader and a realist, he can grasp ideas in a holistic manner and still pay attention to minor details. Marc has a well-deserved reputation as someone who is diligent and personable – two qualities that define him completely. He inspired many members of our team and of our organization for doing the right thing. As someone who is a creative thinker and possesses a can-do attitude, Marc is a pleasure to work with. I recommend him highly for a Security & Risk management position for any organization that chooses to take benefit from his diverse skills.

Working with Marc was fascinating in the sense that he brings a solid experience on all security matters coupled with a pragmatic approach to business. That mix allowed to have secure new processes put in place for the activities that I required to be implemented without jeopardizing the company in any aspect.
