Job description

Position Summary

The Technology & Business Continuity Manager (TBCM) is responsible for the development, execution, and continuous improvement of the bank's business continuity program. While disaster recovery and cyber incident response are led by the Information Security (IS) and IT teams, the TBCM will maintain close collaboration with those groups to ensure continuity planning aligns with recovery capabilities and threat scenarios. This role ensures that critical business operations can continue during and after disruptions by maintaining up-to-date Business Impact Analyses (BIAs), Business Resumption Plans (BRPs), and contingency exercises. The TBCM will work closely with first-line business units, technology teams, and third-party risk management (TPRM) to ensure seamless coordination and communication across all continuity-related activities.

  • Collaborate with Information Security and IT teams to ensure business continuity plans are informed by and aligned with disaster recovery and cyber incident response capabilities.
  • Work with TPRM to ensure vendor-related continuity risks are identified, assessed, and reflected in both vendor profiles and internal continuity plans.
  • Serve as a liaison between Business Continuity, IS, IT, and TPRM to ensure seamless communication and information sharing.
  • Training & Awareness :
  • Develop and deliver training and awareness programs to ensure employees understand their roles in continuity and recovery efforts.

  • Support emergency response protocols and readiness initiatives.
  • Monitoring & Continuous Improvement :
  • Track industry trends, regulatory expectations, and internal performance metrics to evolve the continuity program.

  • Recommend and implement improvements to enhance program maturity and efficiency.
  • Education & Experience

    Education :

  • Bachelor's degree in Business Continuity, Risk Management, Information Technology, Business Administration, or a related field required.
  • Professional certifications such as CBCP (Certified Business Continuity Professional), MBCI (Member of the Business Continuity Institute), or equivalent are strongly preferred.
  • Experience :

  • 5+ years of experience in business continuity, operational risk, or related roles within the financial services industry.

  • Essential Skills :

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; ability to assess risks and develop actionable plans.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to engage with stakeholders at all levels.
  • Project management skills; ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines.

  • Familiarity with third-party risk management frameworks and vendor due diligence.
  • Ability to automate or streamline continuity processes using tools such as Excel macros, Power Automate, or scripting languages.
  • Experience in a lean team environment where efficiency and cross-functional collaboration are key.
  • Benefits and Compensation

    Salary offered is based on factors, including but not limited to, the job duties, required qualifications and relevant experience, and local market trends. The role may be eligible for bonus or incentives based on company and individual performance.
