McKesson is seeking an accomplished and strategic leader to serve as Senior Director, Cyber Resiliency and Business Continuity.

This role ensures the organization can anticipate, withstand, recover from, and adapt to cyber and technology disruptions, while meeting regulatory, audit, and risk management expectations.

Operating within the Cybersecurity organization, this leader provides program ownership and enterprise oversight, partnering closely with Business leaders, IT / Disaster Recovery teams, Enterprise Risk Management, Audit, and Regulatory stakeholders to ensure consistency, effectiveness, and maturity of resiliency capabilities.

• Ensure BIAs are consistently executed by the business with appropriate rigor and alignment to policy.

• Validate business-defined recovery objectives (e.g., RTO, MTD, dependencies) for completeness, consistency, and risk-based justification.

• Provide quality assurance and challenge to ensure BIAs reflect real operating realities and cyber threat considerations.

Program Oversight, Assurance & Reporting

• Provide program-level oversight of enterprise BCP and cyber resiliency activities, focusing on: Completeness, Consistency, Risk alignment, Maturity progression.

• Develop and deliver executive reporting on resiliency posture, gaps, trends, and remediation status.

• Track findings, gaps, and corrective actions across cyber, business, and IT domains, ensuring accountability and closure.

• Measure and report program maturity against recognized frameworks and internal expectations.

Testing, Exercises & Lessons Learned

• Coordinate and govern enterprise resiliency exercises, including tabletop simulations and recovery validation activities.

• Ensure testing scenarios incorporate cyber-driven disruption, realistic failure conditions, and cross-functional dependencies.

• Lead post-exercise and post-incident lessons learned processes, driving actionable improvements across policy, plans, and execution.

• Validate that testing outcomes result in concrete remediation and capability uplift.

Crisis Management Partnership

• Partner with Crisis Management and Incident Response leaders to ensure clear governance and escalation during major cyber disruptions, alignment between cyber incident response, business continuity, and technology recovery.

• Provide oversight assurance that crisis processes, roles, and decision frameworks are defined, tested, and understood.

Leadership & Collaboration

• Influence senior leaders across Business, IT, Risk, and Legal without direct authority.

• Build strong partnerships while maintaining independent challenge and assurance.

• Lead and develop a high-performing cyber resiliency team, fostering a culture of accountability, rigor, and continuous improvement.

• Provide executive-level visibility and guidance on resiliency risks, posture, and prioritization.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s Degree (in Computer Science, Information Security, or related field) or equivalent experience. Typically requires 13+ years of relative experience and 6+ years of diversified leadership, planning, communication, organization, and people motivation skills (or equivalent experience).
