This role will focus on ensuring the business is ready for major events, it will involve coordinating improvements and processes across the business to ensure key targets are met across emergency management and risk.

You will manage processes following emergency events, follow up with teams to gather information, and help shape improved procedures for future responses. You’ll coordinate across all functional areas to ensure end‑to‑end readiness for major events, monitor readiness indicators, and enable stakeholders to deliver on agreed actions.

You will bring:

  • Expertise in coordinating workflows, managing projects, and driving improvement programmes across multiple teams
  • Experience in a large organisation or a highly regulated environment working with governing bodies
  • Strong relationship‑building skills and the ability to promote action while remaining respectful
  • A proactive mindset with the ability to see the big picture and anticipate next steps
  • Extremely organised, Tech Saavy and able to problem solve quickly
  • Exposure to risk management, emergency management, or resilience practices (beneficial but not essential)
