**Company Description**
Constanter Philanthropy Services (CPS) professionally supports and enables all of the philanthropic organisations founded by the Brenninkmeijer family entrepreneurs to maximise their impact in service of the common good. CPS does this through providing high-quality, fit-for-purpose operational support in the areas of HR, IT, Finance, Risk, Legal, Tax, Insurances, Facilities, Travel, Procurement, Security, Project Management, and Reporting. CPS dedicates most of its work to the support of Porticus and Laudes Foundation, but also provides support to the Constanter Investment Office.

CPS is a global organization, built on the premise of strong collaboration and striving for professional excellence together. The work we do makes a real difference, so we dedicate the best of our skills and knowledge to it, striving to make a positive contribution every day.

The Head of Risk is part of the Legal, Risk & Tax team within CPS.
