Protecht, a risk software firm, has made waves with the announcement of Gary Lynam’s promotion to the role of EMEA Managing Director.

As a leader in its domain, Protecht specialises in offering a holistic view of risk through its unique and interconnected platform. They have earned a reputation for assisting businesses in minimising disruption risks, ensuring customers always receive satisfactory outcomes.

Notably, the company has been lauded for its operational risk management acumen, with a special mention in the G2 Fall 2023 Reports, and recognised as a leader in Mid-Market GRC Platforms.

Gary Lynam isn’t a new face at Protecht. Having been a cornerstone in establishing and elevating the company, he initially joined Protecht’s fold as the Director of ERM Advisory. His journey before joining Protecht was equally impressive, boasting experience as a risk advisory consultant for three banking giants, including the esteemed NatWest. Additionally, his initial foray into the corporate world began at KPMG in the Risk Advisory segment.

Throughout his tenure at Protecht, Lynam’s influence was profound. He was the helmsman of the customer success division, playing an instrumental role in overseeing numerous global GRC system implementations. More importantly, under his stewardship, many clients achieved their risk management aspirations.

The timing of Lynam’s appointment is of significance, coinciding with Protecht’s unveiling of its advanced Operational Resilience module. This enhancement aims to equip businesses with the tools needed to mitigate disruption risks and maintain consistent, positive customer experiences.

Protecht CEO David Bergmark said, “Gary has been instrumental in growing Protecht’s brand in the EMEA region and is a proven expert in Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC). We are very confident Gary will guide our EMEA business through the next phase in its journey and drive adoption of the Protect ERM platform in the region.”

On his new role, Gary Lynam comments, “I am delighted to have the opportunity to build on Protecht’s success in EMEA. I look forward to bringing continued value to organisations who want to gain an actionable view of operational risk, resilience, and compliance to prepare for every eventuality and regulatory obligation on the horizon.”
