- Own key Operational Resilience activities, including Self‑Assessment, Important Business Services, impact tolerances, dependencies, vulnerabilities and resilience testing.
- On the Third‑Party Risk side, oversee the material third‑party register, embed risk requirements into supplier processes and support ongoing monitoring, BCP and exit planning for higher‑risk suppliers.
