PKF Accountants & business advisers is expanding the services offered by its Cardiff office with the appointment of a senior business risk manager.
Chris Mundy has more than 20 years experience in providing assurance and consulting services across the private and public sector as well as charitable bodies and not-for-profit organisations. Prior to joining PKF, Mr Mundy was a senior member of Mazars’ internal audit practice, specialising in providing support to the social housing and education sectors.
As part of his new role, Mr Mundy will provide internal audit and risk management services to public and private sector organisations based in Wales, advising organisations on how to mitigate issues and risks as they arise. He will also lead PKF’s services in offering advice on developing internal auditing procedures, risk management structures and effective corporate governance arrangements.
Mr Mundy says, “As part of my new role I hope to develop PKF’s business risk services team across Wales, increase their visibility in the marketplace and demonstrate that the firm presents a real and innovative alternative in the provision of risk management services.
“Effective risk management and internal controls are particularly important in today’s challenging economic climate. When budgets are tight and cash flow is restricted, it is more important than ever for businesses to establish effective structures and governance arrangements to ensure that they are performing as efficiently as possible and using their resources effectively.”
Tim Smith, partner in charge of the Cardiff office of PKF says: “I am thrilled that Chris will be working with the team in Cardiff. He has a wealth of experience in advising on best practice controls for organisations facing continual change and the processes required to mitigate issues and risks as they arise.
“Drawing on his extensive experience, it is hoped Chris will build an established portfolio of clients in Wales, advising businesses on the development of risk management structures and effective corporate governance arrangements.”
