Nicholas Woodley

With over 25 years of experience delivering enterprise solutions across regulated industries—including banking, insurance, government, and technology—I bring a practitioner's perspective balancing innovation with governance and operational reality. As a Consultant and Auditor with ISSI, I evaluate partner technical capabilities for specialisation approvals across Microsoft, AWS, GCP, and SAP programmes—objectively assessing competence, delivery, and business maturity against defined standards. I also serve on the ISC2 Exam Development team for the Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) certification refresh, demonstrating industry recognition of my subject matter expertise in cloud security. As an ISC2 Chapter Officer, Microsoft Certified Trainer, and ISO 42001 Lead Auditor, I'm committed to professional standards and recognising excellence. These evaluation and assessment roles translate directly to awards judging, particularly where technology, security, and business transformation intersect.
