About Kristina Spears
Recently relocated to the US and have been granted permission to work. I am an experienced and passionate risk professional with a proven track record across financial services, investment operations, and strategic transformation. I’ve led enterprise and operational risk initiatives across a range of complex business areas, helping the organisations I worked for strengthen governance, embed effective controls, and proactively manage risk.I bring deep expertise in designing and implementing risk frameworks, developing policy and oversight models, and supporting high-value change. Alongside this, I’ve also delivered multi-million-pound digital transformation projects - reaching millions of users - ensuring risk is built into product delivery from the ground up without compromising innovation or pace.I’m a collaborative and trusted leader, known for building strong relationships across all levels of the business, mentoring and developing teams, and influencing senior stakeholders to drive a strong, forward-looking risk culture.
