Brian Nickerson at Control Risks


My character means a lot to me. I refuse to do half a job for a full check. I also don’t believe my job description should limit my involvement in resolving issues that may plague the company.

I joined Control Risks in 2007 and was hired to perform credit and collections functions. After learning about Control Risks and meeting with colleagues, I knew I had found a perfect space to make my mark.

My day-to-day functions are to manage my portion of the Americas order to cash responsibilities. I like to fully understand what can be improved in that process.

I have been with Control Risks now for 16 years and I love the interesting projects that we work on. I enjoy interacting with colleagues, and honestly, I enjoy solving the problems that we encounter as a company. When you get it right, seeing the results is cool.

I have seen some of my colleagues truly grow in their roles, from being consultants in a practice or department to becoming principles, partners and department leaders. They have gone from taking instruction to creating the processes the company follows today. That has been a highlight for me and I’m very proud of those folks.

I love my family and wouldn’t be the man I am today without them. They humble me when I need it and love me unconditionally when I need that. I am a big movie buff. My oldest son is now a freshman at university and that has been a huge focus for me and the family. Supporting him and watching him grow has done my heart good.
