Cyber Resilience Lead - BCP Transformation/ Contract Initial 6-Month Contract | 2-Year Programme | Hybrid (2 Days Onsite in Oxfordshire) Start: ASAP We're seeking a dynamic, hands-on Cyber Resilience Lead to drive a major Business Continuity Planning (BCP) transformation as part of a high-profile, long-term cyber resilience programme. This isn't a role for someone who simply talks frameworks-it's for a proactive, experienced leader who has built and delivered real-world business recovery plans through a cyber lens. You'll be leading from the front, engaging across technical and non-technical teams to ensure the organisation is resilient, responsive, and recovery-ready in the face of cyber threats. What You'll Do: - Own and lead the BCP Transformation - designing and delivering a fit-for-purpose Cyber Resilience Framework embedded across the business. - Work closely with Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) teams and run the workstream responsible for outlining and validating disaster recovery and incident response plans. - Drive cross-functional collaboration with technology, legal, data privacy, crisis management, disaster recovery, and operational continuity teams. - Deliver and maintain practical recovery processes across a complex, global technology and business landscape. - Champion and coordinate cyber resilience testing activities - including red/blue/purple team exercises - and ensure continuous improvement through lessons learned. - Build clear, usable documentation and artefacts that support real-world application of recovery processes. - Develop metrics and maturity reporting to monitor and communicate resilience capability and progress. What You'll Bring: - Proven experience leading cyber resilience or BCP programmes with a hands-on delivery approach. - Strong track record in building real business recovery plans, not just high-level frameworks. - Ability to bring cyber and BCP worlds together - ideally with experience in organisations with complex or regulated environments. - Confident working closely with GRC and other business-critical teams to align resilience planning with compliance and governance. - A gregarious, articulate style - able to engage, influence, and gain trust across diverse stakeholders. - A roll-up-your-sleeves mindset - this is not a siloed or purely advisory role. You'll be driving delivery from day one. This is a fantastic opportunity for a senior contractor who can balance strategic oversight with operational execution, working at the heart of a programme that directly strengthens organisational resilience in an evolving cyber threat landscape. Send your CV now for consideration. Interviews to be held as early as next week.
