Питер изучал право в Амстердаме. Он начинал свою карьеру в Baker & McKenzie, после этого проработал более 15 лет в финансовом секторе в трастовой компании «Intertrust». В 2017г. он стал соучредителем «Regulatory Lab», где разрабатывалась платформа программного обеспечения специально для юридических и налоговых консалтинговых компаний для того, чтобы они могли упростить и улучшить процессы адаптации клиентов к соблюдению требований законодательства в части противодействия легализации (отмыванию) доходов, полученных преступным путем.

Питер имеет опыт в комплаенсе, написании офисных политик, контактах с регулирующими органами, обучающих программах и «клиентском опыте». В течение своей карьеры он наблюдал регуляторные изменения от жёстких ограничительных правил до сегодняшнего комплексного подхода, основанного на оценке рисков. Благодаря различным должностям у Питера появилось чёткое понимание комплаенса и процедуры «принятия клиентов»  с точки зрения как клиентов, так и регулирующих органов. Юридические и налоговые консультационные компании часто обращаются к нему за экспертным мнением в различных вопросах комплаенса.

Руководя командой Intertrust в Северной Америке, Сирп стал экспертом в Законе о предотвращении отмывания денег и финансирования терроризма («Wwft») и Законе о надзоре за трастовыми офисами («WTT»), а также в мерах верификации «Знай своего клиента» («KYC»).
