Job Description

Job Title: IT Governance & Disaster Recovery Analyst
Location:  Memphis, TN

Overview:
A dynamic organization is seeking an experienced IT Governance & Disaster Recovery Analyst to support ongoing initiatives focused on maturing internal governance programs and disaster recovery planning. This hands-on role is ideal for an analytical, documentation-focused professional who enjoys collaborating across departments, managing parallel workstreams, and driving tangible results in evolving environments.

What You’ll Do:

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to analyze and improve end-to-end governance and recovery processes

  • Facilitate and execute disaster recovery planning efforts for both cloud-based and on-premise systems

  • Coordinate quarterly tabletop exercises, audits, and compliance initiatives across 60+ internal teams

  • Create, maintain, and promote high-quality documentation using wiki-style tools (e.g., Confluence, SharePoint)

  • Identify process inefficiencies and champion improvements that align with organizational goals

  • Help integrate new governance standards into existing workflows, balancing structure with adaptability

Ideal Background:

  • 3–5 years of relevant experience in IT governance, business continuity, or disaster recovery

  • Strong business analysis skills — capable of assessing complex workflows, identifying gaps, and proposing pragmatic improvements

  • Detail-oriented writer with experience creating documentation for technical and non-technical audiences

  • Proven ability to juggle multiple priorities and drive progress across cross-team initiatives

  • Familiarity with tools like Confluence, SharePoint, and Riskonnect is a plus

  • Conceptual understanding of COBIT or similar governance frameworks is helpful, but not required

Top Candidate Traits:

  • Self-starter with excellent organizational skills and follow-through

  • Comfortable operating in ambiguous or “grayâ€� areas without strict playbooks

  • Approaches challenges with flexibility, creativity, and a collaborative mindset

  • Not just a rule enforcer — but someone who finds ways to make processes work across diverse teams

  • A doer who pushes work forward rather than waiting on direction or delegation

Preferred Experience Includes:

  • Prior involvement in disaster recovery planning or business continuity (but not limited to niche tools or systems)

  • Hands-on documentation and governance experience, especially across multiple departments or functions

  • Exposure to internal audit or regulatory compliance workstreams

Who Will Succeed in This Role:
Candidates with a hybrid background in business analysis, compliance, or IT governance who enjoy solving problems, documenting improvements, and building repeatable processes. This is not a pure technical role or a senior strategy position — it's ideal for someone ready to roll up their sleeves and help advance key initiatives from within.
