About the Company Our client is an established Canadian organization in the regulated financial services space, with several business lines and a national customer base. The company is investing in operational resilience and wants an experienced leader to take its business continuity program to the next stage.

The Role

This is a senior business continuity role based in Toronto. You’ll own the enterprise BCM program end to end: setting standards, guiding business leaders as they own their plans, and showing leadership how ready the organization is for a disruption. It suits someone who has built or strengthened a continuity program before and is confident in front of senior executives.

What You Will Do Shape and run the enterprise BCM program, including policy, standards, governance and the annual planning cycle. Lead business impact analysis across business lines, working with process owners to set recovery objectives and map dependencies on technology, vendors and facilities. Plan and facilitate tabletop exercises and simulations on realistic scenarios, then follow corrective actions through to closure.

Coordinate the continuity response during major disruptions alongside technology, security,



incident management and communications teams. Track program health with clear metrics and report on resilience posture, gaps and progress to senior leadership.

What You

Bring 10+ years in business continuity, operational resilience, disaster recovery or crisis management, including leading programs across functions. Hands-on experience running enterprise BIAs and turning business needs into recovery objectives that can be tested against IT recovery capability. A track record of building or maturing a BCM program in Canadian financial services, insurance or another regulated workplace.

Experience implementing or administering a BCM or GRC platform, including workflows, dashboards and evidence management. Working knowledge of ISO 22301, NIST SP 800-34 and Canadian regulatory expectations for operational resilience. CBCP, MBCI/CBCI or ISO 22301 Lead Implementer is an asset.

Why This Role

You’ll own business continuity for a large regulated organization and work directly with the leaders who make resilience decisions. The program is still taking shape, so you’ll have a real say in how it’s designed and run.
