Javo Consultancy Ltd
UK-Based Lead Auditor (UKAS Experience) | Remote ISO & Security Pre-Assessment Specialist
Set up in February 2017 as a registered limited company, Javo Consultancy is a family-run business with two directors, who are highly experienced UK-based Lead Auditors with a number of years of combined experience auditing and assessing compliance for a UKAS-recognised certification body.
We specialise in the full lifecycle of major management systems, including ISO 27001 (Information Security), ISO 22301 (Business Continuity), and the full HSEQ suite (ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001). We also hold specific expertise in niche UK security accreditations like ACS, COP 119, British Standards and the Safer Security scheme.
We focus exclusively on high-value, project-based work, delivered remotely, which helps clients achieve and maintain compliance efficiently. We provide the expert, objective view you need before the final certification body audit. Our core services include:
● Remote Internal Audits: Conducting required, independent internal audits for all major ISO standards.
● Gap Analysis & Readiness Checks: Identifying non-conformities and creating clear remediation plans.
● Specialised Document Review: Expert review and drafting of key compliance documents and reports.
● Security Accreditation Support: Pre-assessment checks for complex standards like ACS and COP 119.
Our availability is strictly limited to evenings and weekends (GMT) to ensure your project receives our full, dedicated attention outside of business hours. We favour fixed-price contracts for defined deliverables (e.g., full ISO 27001 Internal Audit Report).
Important Note:
To maintain professional integrity, we strictly do not provide services to organisations certified by our current full-time employer. Please be ready to confirm your Certification Body when requested.
