. Driving the programme forward.

About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Driving the programme forward. You'll own the rhythm of the BCM programme, ensuring BIAs and Risk Assessments are being delivered to standard across service lines, exercises are planned and coordinated, and learnings are tracked through to completion. You'll work through operational teams to get this done, but you'll set the pace, maintain the standards, and hold people to account.
  • Getting into the detail. You'll get to know the operations, dependencies, and risks across the service lines; not from a register, but from real engagement with the people who run the services. When something doesn't stack up, you'll see it. When a plan documents a strategy that hasn't actually been implemented, you'll call it.
  • Stepping in when it matters. Whether it's leading a BIA workshop that needs stronger facilitation, redesigning an exercise programme that isn't stress-testing the right things, or intervening where quality isn't landing you bring the expertise to do the work, not just oversee it.
  • Assuring quality and sign-off. You'll QA exercise outputs and BCM documentation, ensure the right approvals are in place for strategies and solutions, and confirm that what's documented accurately reflects what's been implemented. This is where the shift from paperwork to proven capability lives and you're the person who holds that line.
  • Reporting and escalating with credibility. You'll provide governance forums with clear, evidence-based updates on programme maturity and risk posture. When there are blockers, you'll escalate with context and recommendations not just problems.
  • Building capability over time. You'll uplift the teams around you, improving artefacts, sharpening processes, and building confidence in the programme so that BCM maturity grows across the organisation, not just within your function.

Requirements

  • Strong experience facilitating Business Impact Analysis and Risk Assessment workshops with operational and technical teams
  • The ability to drive outcomes through others and the confidence to step in and deliver directly when required
  • Experience reporting into governance forums with clear, evidence-based programme updates
  • A sharp understanding of the relationship between BIAs, strategies & solutions, and the plans that document them with a focus on implemented capability, not paperwork
  • The credibility to challenge, push back, and hold people accountable without losing the relationship
  • A continuous improvement mindset always looking at what's not working and fixing it
