Partner with business and technology leaders to align recovery capabilities with business criticality, risk tolerance, and recovery objectives.

Identify material recovery risks, capability gaps, and dependencies; drive appropriate remediation and escalate significant risks or decisions requiring leadership attention.

Establish clear accountability across business and technology teams and influence stakeholders to drive participation, ownership, and adoption of BC/DR practices.

Define and oversee testing and exercise approaches to validate preparedness, capture lessons learned, and drive continuous improvement.

Provide senior leadership with clear reporting, insights, and recommendations regarding program maturity, preparedness, key risks, and investment or prioritization decisions.

Strong knowledge of BC/DR principles and practices, including business impact analysis, recovery objectives, continuity and recovery planning, dependency management, and testing.

Proven ability to influence, align, and drive accountability across business and technology teams without direct authority.

Strong judgment and ability to assess complex risks, identify tradeoffs, develop recommendations, and escalate issues appropriately.

Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills, including experience engaging with and presenting to senior leadership.
