An enterprise risk professional with 20 years’ experience working both with and within the public and private sectors, Alix is passionate about the value of risk management as an enabler and in driving improved resilience of organisations and communities. Her current role involves looking at key emerging and evolving areas of risk now and in the future and leading Zurich’s response to these, particularly through thought leadership and insight. Alix is also a Sustainability lead at Zurich, both internally and externally, with a focus on environmental and social risk areas. Alix has experience in a variety of fields including strategy and policy development, corporate planning, performance management, programme and project management and business resilience. Starting her career as a Strategic Risk Consultant, Alix then spent 7 years as a lead officer at a unitary local authority before returning to Zurich to manage the Public Services segment.

Most environmental opportunities will reduce costs in the medium to long term. Where there is no direct renumeration, you will almost certainly reduce the risk of an unplanned event which will ultimately deliver savings. This isn't talked about enough. In business, we need to present a business case for proposed change. Although the benefit to the environment may take precedence, all elements which lead to the success of the plan need to be considered in any evaluation. This is basic risk management and essential when you are looking for support and buy in from budget holders and senior leaders. #environmentalmanagement #riskmanagement #sustainability #environmentalimprovement #esg

#BELRIM hosted a dynamic convergence of #riskleaders on November 23rd at the #RiskFrontiersBenelux Conference, a collaborative effort with Commercial Risk Online and NARIM at Katoen Natie. Participants explored the evolving #European #corporate risk landscape, emphasizing the transformative role of #riskmanagement. ESG influences board-level decision-making and requests therefore a deeper integration of risk and #insurance strategies. Expert speakers shared diverse visions on #ESG, portraying it as a strategic imperative rather than a mere compliance element. Discussions delved into upcoming regulatory shifts, equipping attendees to navigate the changing compliance landscape. Holistic risk management, essential adaptability to regulatory changes, and cross-industry collaboration emerged as #keytakeaways. Want to know more?
