Join a purpose driven winning team, committed to results, in an inclusive and high-performing culture.

The Senior Manager for Cyber Resilience is accountable for managing, coordinating, communicating and maintaining accurate status for the program work streams and overall book of work. This role is crucial to maintain transparency, consistent communications, accurate reporting, Steer Co awareness, and proactive management of resources across individual work streams and for the overall book of work.

The Senior Manager’s measure for success is delivery across the program work streams and commitments which are centered on improving the resilience posture of Scotiabank over an established roadmap emphasizing both tactical and strategic improvements to cyber resilience awareness, policies, processes, capabilities, assessment methodology, technology solutions and tools. Given the breadth of Cyber Resilience, the program will interface with a number of stakeholder groups across all 3 lines of defense including Enterprise Architecture, Engineering, Operations, Data Management, Information Security, Internal Controls, Operational Resilience, Technology Resilience, Third Party Risk Management, Business Technology teams, Enterprise Delivery, Risk Management, and Quality Assurance for both local and enterprise organizational structures.

Cyber Resilience Project work streams being managed must adhere to Corporate EDF Framework and published Governance standards, including providing timely and accurate reporting, communication and presentation materials for Project Reporting, the program Steer Co, stakeholder working groups, related stakeholder Steer Co’s (Operational Resilience and Technology Resilience, etc.), Risk Committees, and other managerial forums up to and including Board level materials.

Given the matrix of management structures and the horizontal nature of cyber resilience, the candidate must have highly effective relationship management techniques and be comfortable managing with both authority and influence across internal and external resources in the support of planning, design, deployment, execution and support of IT solutions and processes that support both globally-oriented initiatives and those focused on the New York/US business.
