About me
I have a strong high-level background as strategic manager in the Danish Police Force including international high level assignments and education.
Experience and lessons learned from 5,5 years as Head of Global Security at Arla Foods Amba with focus on a holistic full-scale security and duty of care program.
CEO of OLYMA Consulting the past 3 years advising and supporting several Danish top-level companies developing their risk management and duty of care programs.
In 2019 I contributed to the development of a White Paper covering duty of care. It was developed in cooperation with the international SOS foundation and the confederation of Danish Industry, Carlsberg and Arla Foods.
I had the honour to present and promote the paper in Copenhagen and Jutland for an invited audience of Danish security professionals both from the private and the public sector.

Transparency in security spend.
Optimize financial resources by promoting transparency in security expenditure. Evaluate existing company-wide security investments to identify and eliminate duplications, ensuring cost-effectiveness. This process involves a comprehensive analysis of direct and indirect security spending, facilitating informed decision-making to avoid unnecessary expenses. Enhancing visibility into the allocation of resources strengthens overall security measures, creating a streamlined and efficient financial approach.
The result is improved cost savings and a more strategic deployment of funds to bolster the organization’s security posture.
