Risk Manager

About the role

The Risk Manager will support the effective identification, assessment, and management of project risks for a major UK infrastructure programme.

Responsibilities

• Lead and support the implementation of project risk management processes across complex infrastructure and construction projects.
• Own and maintain project risk registers, ensuring risks are clearly defined in terms of causes, events, impacts, probability, consequence and mitigation actions.
• Facilitate risk identification and review workshops with Project Management, Planning, Commercial, Engineering and other project stakeholders.
• Undertake and support Quantitative Schedule Risk Analysis (QSRA) and Quantitative Cost Risk Analysis (QCRA) to assess the potential impact of uncertainty on project outcomes.
• Develop and maintain risk models, incorporating cost and schedule uncertainty, risk events, correlations and appropriate probability distributions.
• Produce clear and concise risk reporting, dashboards and management information, highlighting key exposures, trends, emerging risks and areas requiring management intervention.
