Join us for a community conversation about the SBP Story.

Thomas Corley, Chief Recovery Officer with St Bernard Project (SBP), will share some of the knowledge he has learnt from 15 years of disaster recovery experience with an organisation that is committed to shrinking the time between disaster and recovery.

Driven by the conviction that “a problem isn’t a problem without a solution,” Thomas sees all problems as inherently solvable.

As Chief Recovery Officer, Thomas is responsible for shaping strategic direction, program expansion, and team building for SBP's disaster recovery and resilience programs.

Previously, Thomas served as the Continuous Improvement Officer, guiding SBP’s adoption and adaptation of the Toyota Production System and standardization of SBP's operational practices. 

As Executive Director of SBP’s Hurricane Sandy recovery operation in New York, he guided SBP’s Owner Occupied Rebuild program, as well as Project UPLIFT—a home elevation pilot program supported through the Governor's Office of Storm Recovery. Thomas and the New York team have spearheaded growth in organizational capacity and client outreach.

SBP is a national disaster recovery and resilience organization dedicated to shrinking the time between disaster and recovery by reducing risk, increasing resilience, and improving the recovery process by transforming the disaster sector’s systems, policies, and programs.
