Business Continuity Analyst
Contract | On-site - Dublin Central | Major National Healthcare Programme
We are supporting a large, complex public-sector organisation delivering one of Ireland's most significant digital and infrastructure programmes: the opening of a large new healthcare facility, underpinned by a major Electronic Health Records (EHR) implementation.
As part of this programme, we are seeking
Business Continuity Analysts
to support go-live readiness and ensure continuity of care and operations during system outages or major incidents.
This is a
hands-on, delivery-focused role
, suited to candidates with strong business continuity experience from healthcare, technology, regulated, or other mission-critical environments.
The opportunity
Initial
6-month contract
(with potential extension)
Full-time, on-site
role at a major new national facility
Opportunity to work on a once-in-a-generation programme with real-world impact
Multiple positions available, including
one more senior/supervisory profile
and
two junior/analyst-level hires.
What you'll be doing
Developing and documenting
Business Continuity Access (BCA) plans
for clinical and non-clinical systems
Designing
emergency access workflows
, fallback procedures and escalation paths
Supporting go-live readiness for a large-scale EHR and hospital systems programme
Coordinating and executing
scenario testing
during technical dress rehearsals
Validating access and continuity mechanisms during simulated outages
Working closely with clinical, operational, security and technical stakeholders
Ensuring plans align with
security and regulatory requirements
(e.g. GDPR, NIS2)
Producing clear documentation and reporting on risks, gaps and outcomes
What we're looking for
Proven experience in
business continuity planning
within a complex or critical environment (healthcare, tech, utilities, financial services, large enterprise, etc.)
Strong understanding of
access management, emergency access or continuity controls
Experience working to tight timelines in high-risk, high-visibility programmes
Excellent stakeholder engagement and documentation skills
A practical, calm, problem-solving mindset
Nice to have (but not essential)
Experience with
EHR platforms
such as Epic or similar large enterprise systems
Background in IT, cybersecurity, identity & access management, or service resilience
Business Continuity or IT Service Management certifications (e.g. CBCP, ITIL)
Why this role
This is not a theoretical business continuity exercise.
You will be directly involved in ensuring patient safety, operational resilience, and readiness for a nationally critical healthcare go-live.
If you have delivered business continuity in environments where failure is not an option, this will be a highly rewarding assignment.
