  • Build and maintain a strategic roadmap to senior leadership, including any business case for investment
  • Influence adoption of improved process and governance with stakeholders and teams outside direct reporting authority
  • Coordinate & contribute to risk assessments (threat and vulnerability analysis) to inform Business Impact Analysis and continuity strategy
