  • Communication of the firm's / business' resilience position (risks and remediation) through clear and transparent scorecards / dashboards to enable effective investment decisions to the Board and Executive Committees, Control Forums and business stakeholders.
  • Enhancement of resilience, crisis management and incident response and recovery capability through sophisticated, regular and adequate testing coverage to demonstrate Important Business Services' ability to recover within impact tolerance for a severe but plausible scenario.
  • Assurance that services and products are built resiliently by the business through the change management process (NAPAs, DRAs, material change process).
  • Continually remain abreast of resilience and crisis and incident management developments, regulatory policy requirements and the emerging landscape.
  • Mitigation of the impact of unexpected incidents by identifying, responding to and enabling the resolution of events that threaten the services, operations, infrastructure, colleagues and clients of the bank.
  • Execution of responses to reported incidents and potential threats from various channels including intelligence, email, phone and monitoring systems prioritised by the assessed or actual impact to the bank.
  • Documentation and analysis of past prioritised incident details, the steps to resolution and the lessons learnt to support the identification and implementation of preventative measures and process improvements.

Assistant Vice President Expectations

  • Consult on complex issues; providing advice to People Leaders to support the resolution of escalated issues.
  • Identify ways to mitigate risk and developing new policies/procedures in support of the control and governance agenda.
  • Take ownership for managing risk and strengthening controls in relation to the work done.
  • Perform work that is closely related to that of other areas, which requires understanding of how areas coordinate and contribute to the achievement of the objectives of the organisation sub-function.
  • Collaborate with other areas of work, for business aligned support areas to keep up to speed with business activity and the business strategy.
  • Engage in complex analysis of data from multiple sources of information, internal and external sources such as procedures and practices (in other areas, teams, companies, etc.) to solve problems creatively and effectively.
  • Communicate complex information. 'Complex' information could include sensitive information or information that is difficult to communicate because of its content or its audience.
  • Influence or convince stakeholders to achieve outcomes.
