The UoN Operational Resilience Team are recruiting for an Operational Resilience Co-ordinator to work collaboratively with faculties and departments to guide them in identifying and documenting business critical activities and building effective continuity plans to mitigate the impacts of significant disruption to those activities.

In this role you will be co-ordinating an operational resilience framework across the University, developing skills and knowledge which enable colleagues to fully integrate resilience methodology in core business planning and operational decision-making. Highly skilled in building effective, lasting relationships with senior stakeholder groups, you will need to be self-starter and have a strong background in business continuity and incident management or a similar risk management discipline.

Your approach to work will be influential and engaging and you will work flexibly and effectively both individually and with the wider University. You will be a natural innovator and enjoy working in a fast-paced and changeable environment, maintaining high standards, accuracy and professionalism under pressure. Demonstrable ability to influence senior stakeholders is critical.  Due to the requirement to deal with incident management you should be prepared to be part of an on-call response team, sometimes working outside of normal working hours, weekends and bank holidays. 

Working closely with academic and professional service units, the Operational Resilience Co-ordinator will be responsible for:

  • coordinating the operational resilience approach which prioritises the recovery of key systems and operations in a risk- based manner;
  • supporting the incident management process that enables the organisation to respond to adverse events in a controlled manner;
  • providing and analysing data on incident management, business continuity and associated risk management practices
  • working with a specialised system to complete impact assessments, build plans and scenario exercises, including reporting on key performance indicators to identify critical risks
  • supporting the Travel Management Committee, including attending meetings, documenting minutes and following up on outstanding actions

The post is offered on a permanent contract. Hours of work are full time (36.25 hours per week) and work is carried out through a combination of on-campus and remote working, with a minimum of 3 days per week spent on campus.
