  • Assess and communicate impact to critical insurance services, customers or policyholders, business operations, colleague productivity, data availability, cybersecurity and resilience, based on verified information.

  • Maintain complete ServiceNow major-incident records, including chronology, impact and urgency, affected service/CI, actions, decisions, ownership, communications, restoration and closure evidence.
  • Ensure follow-the-sun handovers preserve context, priorities, outstanding actions, risks, communication commitments and decision ownership across shifts.

  • Monitor operational measures such as acknowledgement, communication and restoration performance, SLA/OLA adherence, recurrence, handover quality and record completeness; report exceptions to the process owner.
  • Coordinate appropriately during cyber or resilience events with the accountable security, continuity and business teams while maintaining disciplined incident command and information handling.
  • Support the Senior Senior Lead Associate – ITSM Major Incident Manager / Process Owner with simulations, playbooks, audit evidence, trend reviews, process health checks and the continual-improvement backlog.
