Business Continuity Consultant

Fulcrum Consulting, an LRS company, is seeking a Business Continuity Consultant with our client in Raleigh, NC.

Our client is looking to bring on a short-term contractor to support a major uplift of their Business Continuity (BC) program. The program had been dormant for several years and was recently reinitiated due to heightened regulatory expectations and identified deficiencies. Currently, only one person is staffed in this area, and is looking to bring in additional support to help document, stabilize, and advance the program.

This contractor will play a hands-on role in documenting processes, systems, dependencies, and single points of failure. This role requires someone with strong business continuity planning experience and a solid understanding of the banking world—ideally with exposure to credit card products, origination processes, and risk/control environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead Business Impact Assessment (BIA) documentation routines with business partners, including third-party and systems dependencies
• Identify gaps and weaknesses in current BC plans and work with stakeholders to design and implement workarounds or remediation
• Assist in regulatory remediation efforts to ensure compliance deliverables are completed accurately and on time
• Support monthly and quarterly reporting to senior management committees
• Refresh and maintain business continuity plans, clearly outlining points of failure and key dependencies

Ideal Candidate:

• 5 years of banking experience, with 2–3 years focused on business continuity planning
• Has previously documented and executed BC plans, and worked directly with business partners and stakeholders to build sustainable processes
• Understands risk and controls within a banking context (especially credit card operations)
• Strong documentation and communication skills
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, compliance-driven environment
• Preferred location: Onsite, 4 days/week in Raleigh, to run the plan directly and collaborate closely with team members
