Lee O'Sullivan

I am an experienced Global Security and Risk Management leader with more than 30 years of military, policing, and international corporate security experience. At Everbridge, I lead Global Security Operations, providing intelligence-driven risk insights, crisis management leadership, and 24/7 operational support to organizations with global workforces and complex risk profiles. Throughout my career, I have specialized in helping organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from critical events. I combine real-world operational experience with a structured, standards-based approach (ISO 31000, ISO 9001, ISO 31030) to build security frameworks that strengthen resilience, enhance situational awareness, and protect people, assets, and operations worldwide. My background includes senior roles across Afghanistan, Iraq, EMEA, and multinational commercial environments, where I have led security programs, crisis response functions, executive protection teams, and large-scale operational deployments. I am passionate about transforming complex threat information into clear, actionable decisions for senior stakeholders. Today, I work closely with organizations across multiple sectors to improve their global risk posture, refine their crisis management capabilities, and mature their use of Critical Event Management technologies. I am committed to advancing professional standards and contributing to the security community through continued learning and leadership. If you are looking to strengthen your global security strategy, develop a risk-based approach to resilience, or enhance your organization's readiness for critical events, I am always open to connecting and sharing insight.
