Meet the Team

Our Story.

CRMG began as a shared vision between co-founders Nick Frost and Simon Rycroft, who met during their overlapping careers at PwC. Despite pursuing different paths, their shared passion for creating a people-led, pragmatic business brought them back together. With a commitment to delivering exceptional cyber risk management, they agreed to start CRMG, officially forming the business in January 2018 and becoming partners of the ISF that same year.

The journey truly took off with their first hire in 2019, marking the beginning of an incredible growth phase. From a modest team of two, CRMG expanded to a dynamic team of ten dedicated professionals.. In 2020, CRMG extended its reach to the Middle East, bringing their expertise to a global audience and reinforcing their commitment to excellence in cyber risk management.

In 2022, CRMG launched Risk Genie, a testament to their innovative spirit and dedication to providing cutting-edge solutions. This launch marked another milestone in their journey, showcasing their ability to adapt and grow in an ever-evolving industry.

With a solid foundation and an enthusiastic team, CRMG is poised for even greater achievements, continually driven by their core values and the unwavering commitment to helping businesses navigate the complexities of cyber risk.
