Change management and communication will be part of the delivery, ensuring that agreed improvements are understood and used in practice.

Your responsibilities

• Lead multiple BCM transformation and improvement projects that increase BCMS maturity and improve stakeholder experience.
• Review Business Recovery Plans, processes and other BCM deliverables, then implement pragmatic simplification and process optimization.
• Facilitate workshops and meetings to capture requirements, formalize project objectives, and secure agreement on milestones and success criteria.
• Coordinate cross-functional delivery, manage dependencies and risks, and propose mitigating actions before issues affect outcomes.
• Produce clear status reports, dashboards and management updates for the BCM Management Team.
• Drive change management, communication and adoption, serving as the primary point of contact for assigned projects.
