The role is focused on enhancing and maintaining the Bank's Business Continuity Management (BCM) framework to ensure resilience against potential disruptions. This includes identifying potential risks, conducting impact analyses, and coordinating with various departments to create continuity and recovery strategies.
The position also entails supporting crisis management initiatives to mitigate the impact of crises on the Bank.
The Business Continuity Senior Manager will lead training and awareness programmes, conduct regular testing and drills, and ensure compliance with relevant regulations and standards. By proactively managing risks and preparing for unforeseen events, the manager will help safeguard the bank’s operations.

Monitor emerging threats to enable proactive adjustments to the Bank’s BCM strategies.
* BCM Planning and Strategies: Collaborate with key stakeholders to develop and maintain robust strategies, including business continuity, recovery, and crisis management plans. These should ensure business operations can continue during a crisis and that the Bank can recover promptly. Monitor and review the effectiveness of resilience strategies, make recommendations, and implement improvements. Organise and lead business continuity exercises and drills to test the effectiveness of plans and identify areas for improvement. Ensure all BCM testing across the Bank is delivered according to the BCM testing programme.
