You’ll need to have:
- 15+ years of relevant experience with scenario testing, dependency mapping, IT disaster recovery and/or cyber resilience strategies within financial services, enterprise software as a service (SaaS), fintech, or technology industries
- Proven experience leading complex, cross-functional programs without direct reporting authority and influence stakeholders including management, clients, and vendors
- Sound judgment and an ability to serve as a strategic partner, suggesting new ideas, accepting, implementing feedback, and advising stakeholders (of all management levels) on best practices
- Ability to make decisions on limited information while navigating ambiguity and leveraging both your network and resources to move projects forward
