Job Title: IT Disaster Recovery Analyst

About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled IT Disaster Recovery Analyst to join our IT Continuity team. As a key member of our team, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the resilience and recoverability of our business applications and systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain comprehensive Disaster Recovery plans for business and IT systems.
  • Create and manage Disaster Recovery Test Runbook plans for specific IT system tests.
  • Oversee and maintain the annual Disaster Recovery Testing Schedule.
  • Manage Corporate DR Planning tools such as DRAIP, JIRA, and shared documents.
  • Coordinate and execute physical testing of Disaster Recovery Plans, including creating test runbooks, scheduling tests with stakeholders, obtaining IT Change Control approvals, and arranging test resources.
  • Ensure effective communication with business and IT users before and during DR tests.
  • Coordinate resources during DR tests and collect test results and evidence.
  • Generate and store DR Test Reports to document completion of DR tests.
  • Conduct DR test re-runs if necessary and track and report post-test actions until resolution.
  • Ensure DR tests are conducted safely and securely, without impacting production systems.
  • Develop and maintain site/location/platform/scenario-specific IT Disaster Recovery plans.
  • Provide DR Statistics for management reporting purposes.
  • Support business and IT projects with DR design, process information, and pre-go live actions.
  • Escalate identified gaps in the DR environment to the DR Manager, and act as a deputy for the Disaster Recovery Manager when required.
  • Ensure junior members of the IT Continuity team are competent and effectively utilised.

About You

We are looking for an experienced IT Disaster Recovery Analyst who can bring their expertise to our team. BCI/DRII membership would be beneficial, but not essential. You will be working towards set deadlines and tackling challenges with initiative. Strong interpersonal skills, including listening, verbal and written communication, are essential for effective collaboration with colleagues.

What We Offer

On top of a competitive salary, great teams, and exciting career opportunities, we also offer a wide range of benefits, including a minimum of 25 days holiday, plus bank holidays, and the option to 'buy' extra days, a defined contribution pension scheme, life insurance, income protection, and health cash plan or private medical insurance.
