Business Continuity Manager

The Governance & Executive Support Team is looking for an experienced Business Continuity Manager to lead and manage the incident management and business continuity systems and capabilities within the University, including tools, guidance and training.   This involves working across multiple teams and sites and with senior members of the University.
