Are you ready to play a key role in protecting critical national infrastructure and strengthening resilience across one of the UK's leading energy networks?
SP Energy Networks is looking for a Cyber & Operational Resilience Crisis Manager to lead our crisis management, resilience and threat preparedness capabilities. This is a high-profile role that sits at the heart of our cyber security and operational resilience strategy.
What you’ll be doing
Working across IT, Operational Technology, and critical business services, you will ensure the organisation is prepared to anticipate, withstand, and respond effectively to cyber incidents, operational disruptions, and major crisis events. You will shape how resilience is embedded across the business, developing a culture where employees, leaders, and partners understand their roles and can respond with confidence when it matters most.
- Lead the development of our Crisis Management Framework
- Oversee governance, playbooks, and response procedures
- Support executive leadership teams during major incidents
- Drive threat-informed planning, crisis exercising, readiness testing, and continuous improvement programmes that strengthen organisational resilience
A key part of the position is building and delivering realistic cyber, operational, and executive-level simulations. You'll work closely with Security Operations, Threat Intelligence, Operational Technology, Risk, and senior stakeholders to assess emerging threats, identify vulnerabilities, and translate lessons learned into meaningful improvements.
Leading a team of resilience professionals, you will be responsible for organisational preparedness across SP Energy Networks. You'll manage resilience culture programmes, awareness initiatives, readiness metrics, and regulatory compliance activities, while maintaining strong relationships with government agencies, regulators, industry bodies, and strategic partners.
What you’ll bring
We're looking for an experienced leader with a strong background in cyber security, operational resilience, crisis management, or emergency planning. You will have experience working within Critical National Infrastructure or other highly regulated environments, along with a solid understanding of cyber threats, incident response, NIS Regulations, and the NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework.
