About Harpreet Singh Dhillon

With 18 years of leadership at global institutions like UBS, I specialize in the intersection of Strategic Delivery, Operational Risk (2LoD), and Technology Governance. I am a \"conscientious technocrat\" who balances high-stakes enterprise innovation with rigorous organizational guardrails.Throughout my career, I have proven that delivery and risk are two sides of the same coin. I have architected Operational Risk Management Frameworks (ORMF) and ensured Basel compliance while simultaneously leading multi-million dollar transformations - including account recovery initiatives that delivered a $1.9M ROI.Currently, I am focused on the frontier of AI Governance, ensuring GenAI readiness is balanced with robust risk oversight. My expertise spans vendor contract management (SOW/MSA), third-party governance, and process transformation. I am a collaborative leader dedicated to driving enterprise-level results that are both resilient and profitable.
