Sitting in the Customer and Corporate Services shared services division in the Westpac Group, you, along with the Business Resilience team, will support businesses across the whole Group.
As the Chief Resilience Officer, you will be accountable for the development and oversight of policies, frameworks and programs intended to mitigate / reduce business disruption impact, ensure compliance to regulatory, strategic, operational, financial obligations whilst managing and overseeing incident responses. In this newly created role, you will build and manage a team of professionals who will ensure that the Westpac Group has robust business continuity plans in place to maintain critical operations and services during emergencies or crises. This includes coordinating response efforts, establishing alternate facilities, and testing continuity plans through simulations or exercises.
The Chief Resilience Officer will be a high profile role where, for major issues that impact the Group, you will lead its crisis response and oversight, as well as any post incident reviews.
