Operational/Cyber Resilience Technical Specialist
We are seeking an Operational/Cyber Resilience Technical Specialist to support the development, implementation and continuous improvement of operational and cyber resilience capabilities. This role will help ensure that critical services, systems and processes remain secure, available and recoverable during disruption, including cyber incidents, technology failures and third-party outages.
You will work closely with technology, security, risk, continuity and business teams to identify important business services, assess vulnerabilities and define appropriate resilience measures. Key responsibilities will include conducting technical resilience assessments, supporting business impact and threat analyses, maintaining recovery strategies and validating recovery time and recovery point objectives.
The role will involve contributing to disaster recovery and cyber incident response planning, coordinating scenario-based exercises and documenting lessons learned. You will help develop and maintain technical procedures, playbooks, recovery plans, controls and service documentation, ensuring these remain accurate, practical and aligned with organisational requirements. You will also monitor remediation activity, track resilience risks and provide clear updates to stakeholders and governance forums.
We are looking for experience in operational resilience, cyber resilience, technology risk, disaster recovery, business continuity or a related technical discipline. You should have a sound understanding of infrastructure, applications, networks, cloud services, identity and access management, backup and recovery technologies, and cyber incident response principles.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills are essential, along with the ability to translate complex technical risks into clear business impacts and actionable recommendations. You will be comfortable working across multiple teams, challenging existing practices constructively and managing competing priorities. Experience of resilience testing, control frameworks, risk management tools and relevant regulatory expectations would be advantageous.
This is an opportunity to play a key role in strengthening the resilience of critical services and improving preparedness for an evolving threat landscape. The successful candidate will be organised, collaborative and confident, with a proactive approach to identifying weaknesses and delivering sustainable improvements.
