Background

About Patrick Donaghy

I am a diverse, hard driving I.T. professional of 23 years with an extensive background in I.T. Operations, the last 10 years dedicated to service continuity. I have been consistently recognized in performance reviews as providing excellent customer service, the ability to keep poise and diplomacy in high-pressure, crisis situations rallying the team to overcome the challenges at hand. I have successfully developed, implemented and validated business continuity and disaster recovery plans for a top tier global financial company with complex, multi platform systems with 100+ applications located around the globe. Success was in part due to my strong leadership skills that were critical in efficiently utilizing and motivating 75+ resources from infrastructure, application, security, QA and business teams from various locations and times zones around the globe. As a Certified Associate Business Continuity Professional (ABCP) I strictly adhere to the code of ethics for Business Continuity Professionals. I excel at ensuring that an organization abides to regulatory and policy requirements. During my tenure no internal audit, OSFI or SOX related deficiencies had been attributed to the Canadian service continuity team. I am the right fit for an organization that requires a enthusiastic, dependable, dedicated team player to positively contribute to the highest levels of customer service while committed to ethically protecting an organization from the unexpected, providing confidence that system availability would meet if not exceed recovery time objectives. Specialties: Technology Disaster Recovery, Business Continuity, I.T. Operations (data center, print shop, helpdesk, network control center), Technology Projects.
