Note: This is NOT a job posting. This is just a free, sample job description.
Catastrophes are a fact of life for business owners and it's the Business Continuity Manager's job
to prepare for recovery. Natural disasters, terrorism, crime, and computer or human error can all
keep a business from functioning. Extended downtime could mean a significant enough loss in
revenue that can ruin a business.
A good qualifying question is to ask candidates how they would balance the needs of a
comprehensive plan and one that is unmanageable. Obviously that question is open ended, but it
is the analysis put into the response that will be revealing.
