As a Risk Manager, you will be at the helm of this, driving the thinking of what we do and ensuring this is implemented effectively. Business Continuity and Resilience are vital parts of our UK Risk Office. We work with teams and senior leaders across the UK and US to ensure we are set up for success, in a strong position to support our business and customers should anything unexpected happen.
