Managed-services resilience

  • Maintain a register of cloud and third-party managed services for critical digital services, including owners, suppliers, dependencies, shared responsibilities, criticality, and escalation paths.

  • Conduct evidence reviews, feasible technical validations, and assurance of recovery tests and drills; track findings, gaps, and remediation evidence.

Reporting and dependency risks

  • Provide BAU readiness and recoverability dashboards covering coverage, compliance, open risks, action closure, and provider constraints; escalate priority issues through governance.
  • Assess digital supply-chain concentration and single points of failure, supplier incidents, and contract-renewal risks.
  • Engage suppliers on recovery constraints and align services with DRPs, runbooks, and major-incident recovery procedures.

Required qualifications

  • At least 10 years of relevant experience.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science/Engineering, Information Security, Risk/Compliance, or a related discipline.

Preferred qualifications

  • Cloud certification such as Azure, AWS, or GCP; vendor/third-party risk or assurance certification such as CRISC; and/or DR/BC certification such as CBCP or ISO 22301 are preferred, as applicable.
