A bit about the job:
You will coordinate and deliver Disaster and Cyber Recovery test planning and oversee execution through close collaboration with internal and external teams. Work within our dynamic IT Service Continuity Team and across the organisation (with Application teams, Business Continuity Management, change team, IT Risk and third parties) to deliver a comprehensive and trusted regime of testing for Aviva. You will own the test schedule, and broker agreement against competing demands, constraints, and dependencies in a complex IT landscape.
The successful candidate will need to be driven, take their own initiative, positive, and to make robust and well-reasoned decisions to play a pivotal role in delivering successful testing for Aviva against our commitments. You will work flexibly to adapt to Business needs – the role will demand occasional weekend and evening work.

  • A basic and foundational understanding of IT Infrastructure is valuable – i.e., the ability to discuss failover and recovery with experts. Experience in delivering change to IT infrastructure will be beneficial. Any experience in Disaster recovery testing or even Cyber Recovery solutions would be advantageous.
