Paul Manning is a former undercover police officer, investigator, and author specializing in organized crime, covert operations, ethical decision-making, and financial crime risk. With over 30 years’ experience across UK and Canadian policing—including service with the Royal Military Police, the Metropolitan Police Service, and the Hamilton Police Service—Manning spent years embedded in high-risk undercover environments targeting organized crime networks, including outlaw motorcycle gangs and traditional organized crime groups. His work exposed not only criminal enterprises, but the institutional and ethical failures that can arise inside policing and regulatory systems themselves. Following the collapse of an undercover operation, Manning became a public whistleblower and later documented his experiences in Ten Seventy Eight, an Amazon-bestselling account of undercover work, corruption, and moral injury. Today, Manning speaks to universities, professional bodies, compliance teams, and leadership groups on: - The realities and risks of undercover operations - Ethical failure inside institutions - Decision-making under pressure - Organized crime methodologies - Illicit finance and AML risk from the street to the boardroom His talks are unvarnished, evidence-based, and grounded in lived operational experience—bridging the gap between theory, policy, and real-world consequence.
