Yusuf Ukaye
I feel privileged to work in the fast-growing industry of Resilience. It’s a fascinating world - whether sharing ideas about Resilience or speaking to fellow peers about the importance of integrating business continuity - planning strategies that minimize the impact of disruption. I fully support the free exchange of ideas, collaborating with leaders, colleagues and future talent. I have had had ten years of experience in where I have had the opportunity to work in Utilities, the Regulated sector and the Private sector which have included IT Managed Services, Financial Services, and the pharmaceutical industry. My current role is the global lead on Operational Resilience and Business Continuity Management for CloudPay who are global provider for payroll and payment services. My experience has seen me see both the business development of business continuity services as well as the delivery of business continuity in industry and it has informed and educated me well in the projects and workstreams I am currently undertaking. Academically, I have qualified as a Diploma in Business Continuity as well as a Postgraduate in Organisational Resilience which both awards were through Bucks New University. I am an active member of the Business Continuity Institute, a PECB Lead Implementer ISO 22301 BCMS as well as the nominated Chair for the BCI North Midlands Chapter. As a member of the BCI, this supports my passion for continuous learning and professional development.
