Key Responsibilities:

  • Assess and anticipate the needs of the BC&EM program, delivering services that meet or exceed expectations.
  • Develop, review, and update emergency and business continuity plans and procedures.
  • Design and conduct training sessions on business continuity and emergency management for various stakeholders.
  • Lead orientations, drills, and exercises, including After Action Reviews and incident debriefs.
  • Coordinate projects and meetings with both internal and external partners.
  • Support incident response efforts at the business unit level and within the City of Calgary Emergency Operations Centre.
  • Collaborate with other business units as necessary.

Qualifications:

  • A degree in Business Continuity, Emergency Management, or a related field with a minimum of 4 years of relevant experience; or
  • A completed 2-year diploma with at least 8 years of related experience. Equivalent combinations of education and experience may be considered.
  • Proficiency in business continuity and emergency management principles, as well as familiarity with Microsoft Office Suite and SharePoint.
  • Experience in developing and implementing emergency management and business continuity strategies is essential.
  • Skills in training design, group facilitation, and project management are advantageous.
  • Certifications such as Incident Command System (ICS) training, Business Continuity Planning certification, or Certified Emergency Manager (CEM) designation are considered assets.
  • The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong leadership capabilities and exceptional communication skills, thriving in dynamic and potentially high-pressure environments.

Working Conditions: This role may require participation in an on-call rotation for 24/7 coverage approximately every two months. In the event of an emergency, non-standard hours may be necessary, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, depending on the situation. While a partial hybrid/telework option is available, candidates should reside within a reasonable commuting distance to the Calgary office.
