Job Description

WHAT IS THE OPPORTUNITY?

You love words Grammer and syntax matter to you and you love to put words together in a way that anybody can understand. It makes your day when somebody reads your articles or reference docs and then says, "now I know what to do". The Disaster Recovery Team, now part of Risk, Regulatory Delivery & Governance, needs you to be the linchpin in our communications hub. We need an expert communicator to facilitate two-way communications between our team and multiple stakeholder groups for success all around.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

• Write new documentation to support our program, and review/revise existing materials annually.
• Contribute to maintaining our internal website, potentially leading the design and maintenance of the site.
• Establish strong working relationships across business units and platforms to build influence and impact with key business partners. Collaborate with groups to define and achieve deliverables and ensure initiatives are effectively integrated into RBC procedures and processes.
• Manage the implementation of multiple concurrent initiatives of varying complexity in a time efficient manner.  Monitor and control activities according to plan.  
• Continuously identify potential issues, conflicts, and risks.  Analyze, mitigate and escalate where appropriate

• 5+ years experience as a communications professional (esp technical writer), meaning you are an expert writer.

• Strong organizational, project management and time management capabilities.
• Independent self-started, deadline-driven and results-oriented; able to meet consistently high quality standards while handling a variety of tasks and deadlines simultaneously.
