About the role

The Lead Major Incident Manager provides authoritative command, leadership, and assurance for the most severe and business critical incidents impacting customers, colleagues, or regulatory obligations across the Group. Responsible for taking control of high impacting customer, business or colleague incidents, driving fast resolution and minimizing disruption to customers. This is a senior high-pressure role that requires a level of technical understanding, leadership and communication. You will lead the end-to-end management of major incidents, ensure timely resolution whilst maintaining clear communication with stakeholders and 3rd party suppliers.

Operating as the incident commander of last resort, this role takes control during high‑risk, multi‑tower, or supplier‑impacted incidents where senior stakeholder confidence and service reputation are at risk. The role ensures rapid stabilisation of live incidents, maintains clear executive-level communication and governance, and constructively challenges technical proposals where resolution actions introduce new or disproportionate risk

In addition to real‑time command, the Lead Major Incident Manager acts as a coach and mentor to other Major Incident Managers, shaping capability, behaviours, and confidence under pressure. They play a key role in developing runbooks, playbooks, training, and escalation models to continuously strengthen organisational incident readiness.

This is a senior leadership role, aligned to the organisation’s leadership capability framework, requiring calm authority, strong judgement, and the ability to create psychological safety while driving decisive outcomes.

We operate a function-led hybrid working model, with an expectation of 2–3 days per week on site. The role includes participation in an out-of-hours on-call rota and requires flexibility to travel to other locations for key meetings and collaborative activities, in line with business needs. The position can be based in either Coventry or Manchester.

About you

You will be a composed and credible incident leader who thrives in complex, high‑pressure environments and is trusted by senior stakeholders to take control when it matters most. You adopt a servant‑leader mindset, prioritising customer outcomes, team effectiveness, and organisational resilience over hierarchy. You instinctively balance pace with control and are confident stepping in, stepping back, and coaching others in live situations.

For this role you’ll need to have:

Experience in one or more of the following: Major Incident Management, Operations Command / Control or Senior Incident Management Roles.
Strong experience operating within complex, multi‑supplier environments, Proven experience commanding severe, high‑impact Major Incidents
ITIL certified or able to demonstrate equivalent practical experience
ITIL 4 Foundation & one or more of the following,
ITIL 4 Specialist: Create, Deliver & Support
ITIL 4 Strategist: Direct, Plan & Improve
Proven record of mentoring and developing junior team members.
Essential experience of working in a complex, pressurised production environment in the Banking industry

Experience in these areas would be helpful:

Experience within regulated and/or customer‑critical environments
Working in Agile\Devops\SAFe models would be an advantage

Full-time 35 hours
