Operational Resiliency Lead at Ftmo (Prague, Czech Republic)Operational Resiliency Lead

As our Operational Resiliency Lead, you'll make sure FTMO and our broader group entities can keep serving traders when things go wrong — whether that's a cloud outage, a cyber incident, a key vendor failing or a building we can't enter. You'll own the business continuity, disaster recovery and crisis management framework end to end: mapping our important business services, setting impact tolerances, running realistic tests and turning every lesson into a concrete fix. You'll work closely with Engineering, IT, Security, Operations, Legal and senior leadership, so that resilience is designed into how we work rather than written into a binder once a year.
