About the Podcast

riskologists
Risk Management: Made Simple
optimise is thrilled to host the riskologists podcast, where we chat with some of risk management’s most respected and esteemed thought leaders from across the UK and beyond.

Throughout the opening series of riskologists, we chatted intimately with our distinguished guests to first understand how their journey into risk management began, as well as delving into their unique insights and invaluable first-hand experiences, around some of the industry’s most pressing topics.

The second series saw us delve a little deeper into the minds of risk management recipients. We heard the whys, whens, hows, and everything in between straight from the key beneficiaries in the P3 and enterprise space.

Our third and most recent series spearheads 'The Future of Risk Management' as the key theme under the spotlight. Some of the industry's best thought leaders offer their thoughts and predictions on the future of the discipline.

Our goal is to create a platform for sharing ideas and thoughts, to inspire and educate our audience, and ultimately give back to the risk management community.

About your host

Profile picture for Patrick Bradshaw

Patrick Bradshaw

I joined optimise as a Trainee ERM Practitioner in November 2020, and being very honest, prior to the interview process I had little to no idea what Risk Management was! However, as they say, the rest is history.

Throughout my early tenure in Risk Management, I investigated every possible avenue to help supplement my learning, which included exploring podcasts…

It was at this point, that I realised optimise had a real opportunity to offer something to the community that hadn’t been readily available a great deal up to this point.

I am incredibly passionate not only about constantly developing myself personally and professionally, which interviewing our fantastic guests offers, but also playing my part in improving the profession and leaving it in a better place for the next generation.
