Arcadis is the world's leading company delivering sustainable design, engineering, and consultancy solutions for natural and built assets.

We are more than 36,000 people, in over 70 countries, dedicated to improving quality of life. Everyone has an important role to play. With the power of many curious minds, together we can solve the world's most complex challenges and deliver more impact together.

We are looking for an experienced Risk Manager to join our Rail Consultancy business and work on some of the UK's largest infrastructure projects. On top of this, you'll have the opportunity to work with some exciting clients from other business sectors, including highways, aviation, new build, and utilities.

You'll work closely with project and programme teams to implement effective risk management processes, ensuring full integration with other project management and control disciplines.

You'll provide support to the Service Capability Leader for Risk Management in development of service capability, including supporting with risk analyses, quality assurance, drafting reports, and delivering scope of work in line with budgetary, compliance, regulatory, and planning controls.

As part of our Programme and Project Management team, you'll help deliver some of the biggest, most iconic projects imaginable, with some of the best talent around. With your energy, agility, and a keen eye for detail, you'll deliver transformational outcomes for multiple clients every day.

We partner with our clients across the globe to design thriving and connected cities and communities that enable opportunity for all and keep the world moving. Climate change, urbanization, and digitization trends are requiring today's mobility projects and systems to address an evolving set of demands from the world's growing population. We design connected, sustainable solutions that integrate existing infrastructure with new technologies and optimize the mobility of people and goods.

  • Support and assist in delivering risk management services to clients in compliance with client governance, processes, and objectives.
  • Undertake day-to-day risk management activities including identification, assessment, management, review, and reporting of risks and opportunities.
  • Produce periodic risk reporting which may include profiled risk expenditure, impacted risk/contingency drawdown, and risk exposure changes.
  • Develop Quantitative Risk Analysis including Cost, Schedule, and integrated Cost and Schedule analyses, to enable robust forecasting and tracking of risk exposure.
  • Use knowledge and experience to ensure identification and management of all significant risks to achievement of project objectives.
  • Deliver discrete risk interventions and embedded risk management services.
  • Act as an ambassador for risk management, coaching others in the requirements, processes, and benefits of risk management.

Qualifications & Experience:

Of course, with this being such a specialist role, there are a few "must haves" we'd like to see on your CV:

  • A relevant professional qualification (or working towards) such as APM Risk Certificate or IRM Certificate.
  • Experience in the construction or infrastructure sectors.
  • Knowledge of Enterprise Risk Management tools, for example, Active Risk Manager (ARM), Predict!, and Xactium.

  • Collaborative working style and consulting style approach to clients.
  • A logical approach and ability to think through complex issues to coordinate multi-faceted aspects of projects.
