• Partner with non-financial risk management teams to align resilience planning with underlying risk exposures and controls.
• Integrate insights from cyber events, vendor disruptions, IT outages, and data integrity issues into resilience assessments and response strategies.
• Provide regular updates to senior management, risk committees, and regulators on resilience posture, testing outcomes, and remediation progress.
• Monitor evolving regulatory expectations and industry trends to inform ongoing enhancements to the operational resilience programme.
  

Who You Are

• Minimally 7 to 9 years of relevant experience in operational resilience, business continuity, or non-financial risk functions in banking or financial services.
• Strong understanding of interlinkages between operational resilience and domains such as third-party risk, cybersecurity, technology risk, and data risk.
• Familiarity with regulatory frameworks including MAS BCM/TRM, UK PRA, Basel Principles, APRA CPS 230, and global best practices.
• Proven ability to work across business, risk, and technology teams to integrate resilience into enterprise-wide risk management practices.
