Job Title: Risk Engineer

Location: London, UK (client-facing role); hybrid (~2 days/week in-office)

Job Type: Full Time

Company Overview

At Renew Risk, we aim to revolutionize risk analytics in renewable energy to accelerate the global transition to a sustainable future. By combining cutting-edge engineering, state-of-the-art catastrophe modelling, and strong partnerships, we deliver risk analytics specifically designed for renewable energy assets.

Our journey began with building catastrophe models for offshore windfarms across the U.S., Taiwan, and Japan. Today, we are expanding into new region-perils and renewable energy asset types, including onshore solar and wind. Our vision is to establish a global ecosystem of risk analytics for renewable energy infrastructure, both offshore and onshore.

We are a well-funded London-based startup, having recently closed a major funding round. With established global clients and partners (e.g., McGill & Partners, GCube/HCC Tokio Marine, Nasdaq, Oasis), we are scaling rapidly and aim to triple our headcount in the next two years.

• Attend client sessions in London and support delivery workshops
• Team and Project Management
• Coordinate the Science Team’s project workstack across ongoing studies
• Interface between internal stakeholders and academic collaborators
• Track progress, assure quality, and maintain delivery timelines
