About Derek Knights

Derek recently retired from 40+ years in the security and investigation industry. His last posting was with TD Bank, where he spent his time writing briefing notes, and in general developing a reporting regime. Before TD he worked Sun Life Financial, OPG--Ontario Power Generation, and in the former Metro Toronto Housing Authority (now Toronto Community Housing).

At OPG Derek spent time with a tutor to develop his writing skills for senior audiences in business and government, and he maintains those skills he learned to this day. This fall he is starting his own small consultancy to assist others in the security and investigation world by writing for them, or delivering training and tutoring for staff.
